Sad

Sapa, Vietnam

This group of children looked depressed and sad. No smile and the first boy also got the sniffles. I wonder what were their parents doing? And even what was on their mind. Probably nothing, just staring without any particular reason. They don't even look curious or excited seeing a tourist taking a shot of them - since there's no sign of joy or excitement on their faces.

You have captured their detached and dispassionate looks very well ~V~

Excellent shot. I love the color tone and contrast in this series of Vietnam shots that you have uploaded. They reflect clearly the whole harsh environment so well. Vote.

So did you give them money? That would have made them smile!

Depressing shot Tricia, but a good group portrait. Vote.
