OK, so I made a fool of myself not knowing you were in the Philippines.
It must be late in the night or past my 2nd cocktail to be so rude. Please forgive me and just a high 5 to you for a job well done.
Here in the USA we are restricted in a hopspital situation to take these type of photos without consenting releases . I am so embarrassed.

Just a great shot. But a note of caution...when taking these kind of pics at a nursing home these patients are protected by a federal law of anonymity. Without signed releases you can be held libel. It is the privacy act under federal HIPAA regulations. Sorry, not trying to take away your thunder. It is a great shot. Congrats.

Isn't it sad to think that people have to live like this when we have the Donald Trumps of the world??

This is more than telling. A great piece of photojournalism, without saying a word. Congratulations.

Well done - as I said in my first comment below, it makes me feel too uncomfortable to vote... but that is surely the sign the photographer captured something worthwhile...
