Young Indian Street Urchin

This Image was shot during my first trip back to India which lasted a mere 5 weeks. On my way from the airport to my guesthouse in none other but Paharganj, this little girl came up to me in my autorickshaw and asked me to buy a balloon. I loved the life in her eyes!!

I exchanged money and a small plastic toy I had for her photo….I carried around pens, balloons and sweets in my pocket from that point onwards in my journey….a pic for their choice of the three…most chose pens

    A nice composition…this boy probably is a ‘a young Indian balloon vendor’...

    Wonderful photo but what a shame she is so dirty, the realisation of her lifestyle hits then and it becomes sad, great image to pull my emotions like that! :O)
