This was taken at a squatter camp in Delhi, India. The whole settlement seemed to be focussed around taking large hammers and breaking rocks with them. I saw old men, adults and children all taking part. I took a stroll through the tents and shacks and found this girl.
Eventually I had to leave because I had a heap of children following me and the boss of the rock smashing said I was distracting the people from their work.
This is staggeringly good. The entire body of high quality work that you've managed to compile at such a young age is impressive, to say the least. What a future you have.
This is an amazing shot and probably my favorite of yours. Like Judy said I could easily see this in or on the cover of something like National Geographic...
Thanks for sharing.

One of the most moving portraits I've ever seen. Worthy of a Nat'l Geographic cover. Wonderful work. You connect with them, which makes us see it through your eyes that much more.
