Hi Jim,
You may have observed of these kids love for the four wheeler though many of these like to have a truck or to be a truck driver as most of the Pakistan transport are in their hands, TFS.

Hi Jim, that cart looks pretty similar to one that a friend and I built using bearing races from an old washing machine for wheels (as they were metal that had the advantage and making a tremendous noise and skidding on the asphelt). I like the different expressions of the boys, responding to having their photo taken. It is strange to consider the fate of children one has photographed years ago. I have similar thoughts looking at images of children in Iraq taken in 2000 (no intention of making a political point here)

regarding the image, I thought that the colour looked a bit blue and that cropping some of the BG would improve it also - I did a WS, hope you don't mind. It lost some quality on the re-sizing.

Cheers, Steve
