The Beach Children..., a photo from Maharashtra, West

Photographer's Note

The Children at Versova Beach - Mumbai, India.
These beautiful children are part of Mumbai's "Working Poor." Their parents work respectable jobs, they have nice clothes and go to school, but they live in the corrugated metal shacks that spill onto the beach like a frozen mudslide because their parents can't afford Mumbai's outrageously expensive housing.

Namaste cameron,
excellent composition. Like the use of diagonal. A strong group portrait. I especially like appearance of the 4th guy piping through shoulder. Like also the colour tone. Excellent work. Tfs.
Best wishes.

Hi Cameron!
A very well done portrait. Lots of sweet looks, and the ice-cream bars add a nice twist! The poverty has not diminished their spirits. Well done, cheers,
Steve

Hi Cameron,
Very well taken with a great perspective - the diagonal just great. Great spirit these kids have.
The note that you made is good so that we can understand their living conditions.

C'est une tr鋊 jolie photo d'enfants bien cadr嶪 mais peut-皻re un tout petit peu trop "marron".
