Photographer’s Note

Romanian gypsies are not that bad...look how cute they are although the girls asked for money.

Hi Horatiu,
This one looks like an "isabela_sor/polonaise" hybrid :))
I like a lot your interaction with the kids and the "oh! so cute + dirt" compo. You should have granted the money.
Have a nice Sunday,
Deniz

It is not the kids being bad...it's their parents forcing them to do such things as begging. Looking at these girl's eyes only thing you can see is joy, happiness in anticipation and curiosity. Beautiful portrait showing pure unspoiled beauty hidden behind dirty exterior...beauty of child's soul.

Regards,
Jeri

Hello Horatiu,
A good capture of these two cheeky little girls. I wonder if they will grow up to be like the more well known Cheeky Girls, also from Romania I believe.

Hello Horatiu,

Angels with dirty faces...a bit dark, but it adds to the overall effect of the shot.

Hi Horatiu,
you captured the curiosity in their dirty and cute faces. I'm totally agree with jorgi.

horatiu... think twice when you say the things like "Romanian gypsies are not that bad"... polish kids are not that bad either, nor are chinese or any, actually... i hope you wanted to say something different to what you wrote!

this terrific style of yours! real horatiu is back... stay like this, mate!
