she was very shy when i approached her. her brother was more willing so i took several shots of the boy first. later i saw here gaining some interest. i took this shot where she was, standing by the door of their little shanty.
i learned some tips from manny librodo (during a workshop) how to find good natural lights and capture those eyes. a free study this August is a perfect time to try out what I've learned.

So, I'll be the 15th(?) person to exclaim Great! about your capture of this little girl's expression and EYES. To me this is super achievement in photography. 9
Thank you for sharing and preserving a slice of real life.
Many/most would not want to study this, nor capture it.
Well done! (Needs a bit more texture though in my opinion)
i know why she looks sad. She is trying to eat cereal with a fork! I'd be ticked off too if I couldn't get any milk with each bite of cereal. Awesome shot by the way!
oh those pouty eyes...
Great shot for a 'feed the hungry' poster!
I love the lighting on the girls face. Its a bit hot around her hand. Her knuckles dissapear into the unknown.
