Children First?by ~Lironada

Photography / People & Portraits / Spontaneous Portraits

A very painfull picture that I caught on the montain's villages of north Thailand.
The people that live in these villages are very poor.

We were driving with our jeeps in the roads of the village, and before we got there, we baught some candies to give the childrens in the village.

Every child that saw us was so happy and took the candy right away.
Every father or a mother that saw us called his child to come quickly and take the candy.

But when I saw this old woman with this baby, she, like all the parents, immediately held the baby infront of us, so we'll give him his candy.
But as the baby looks like, is he really on the first priority...?
Or they don't have a choice?

hi, you're from israel so i don't know. but i do know that americans and canadians sure can't condemn thailand for the way children are treated. we kill 100,000 unborn babies in canada every year. (and that's covered by taxpayer medical system -- not sure if thailand has that.) dirty little holocaust that everybody is ignoring. then again, that humans are evil is not some strange new finding.

Expressive and really sad. It's not the technical details that make this photo great but the emotions that it captures and it (even unintentional) message.

Oh, some misunderstanding

I didn't mean that it isn't good but that it's not the most imposrtant in the case.

I love how you have captured the emotion of the people in this photo.

I know how hard it is to witness such blatant poverty right in front of your eyes [I used to live in the Philippines for 2 years and also have travelled around Asia].

Thanks for the understanding
