 It's 17 o'clock and the sun is setting, when I see these kids playing... happy without any idea of what kind of life expects them.

It was said in one of the forums, I think, that even a photo taken of people in poverty can convey a different emotion. While these children may be in poverty, they seem rich in happiness from the colours of their clothes and the happiness in their expressions and actions.

A n image that I kie but would have come in a lot closer as the children seem to be a little lost in the frame.

Too bad these two are in the shadows. I find myself wondering what we aren't seeing in the area. I have a feeling a more dynamic angle would have yielded a better picture. Not bad though.
