Photographer’s Note

The number of beggar in Padang is increasing day to day. They seems to be well-organized by someone, dropped early in the morning and picked up late at night.

Well composed and good lighting, for I still can see the rough contour of his leg skin. The object itself really touches my feeling, to see a boy too young to be a beggar.

sensitive shot, Ardia. I cringe that such a nice looking kid has to beg for his food. And what is next in his life?
Your pix is good technically, colors right, but i feel a bit bad thinking about this, as what is shared here from you is a rather somber situation.
Thanks for the note.

You have social sensitive eye...
Your camera tells me a sad story.

Hi Ardia,

composition and shot are definitively on a high level. It makes me sad to see this beggar. Your picture at least raised much more things in me than I expected. During the time I started with "Hi Ardia" and the end I know something irreversible happend in my mind. Your picture gave me another strong impulse. More and more I start understanding the world...

Cheers,
Pascal
