A Big Tree Down There Among Remote and Poor Villages Transforms Into a Children's Playground - Ethiopia 2025
A huge slum exists amongst the train lines of Dhaka, the Capital of Bangladesh. Here the children work, live and play amongst the railway lines and trains.

Portraying Brazilian Families.
In a country where social inequality is immense, we can still capture moments of smiles and rare happiness. Although rare, this happiness is spontaneous and true.
I have observed many middle-class and wealthy families who do not seem to have such a graceful smile.
But unfortunately 35.5% of Brazilians do not have enough food.
Zero hunger is not yet a reality in Brazil, although the access of Brazilian families to food has increased significantly in seven years.
The population that lives in the so-called "favelas" is very big!

A destitute Nicaraguan girl scowls from a doorway near the rusting remnant of a military vehicle.
Photograph by noted war photographer James Nachtwey from the article "Nicaragua: Nation in Conflict," National Geographic, Vol. 168, No. 6, (Dec. 1985): pp. 776-777.
According to UNICEF, 22,000 children die each day due to poverty. And they “die quietly in some of the poorest villages on earth, far removed from the scrutiny and the conscience of the world. Being meek and weak in life makes these dying multitudes even more invisible in death.”
Homeless barefoot boys sleep huddled over a grating for warmth. Based on a photograph by social reformer Jacob Riis. Original image in the public domain from the Museum of the City of New York. Colorized by Kelly Short using Gimp 2.6.11.
The left boy has snow on his hat and coat sleeve, and a chunk of ice is perched on his wrist. These details are in the original black and white version, which may also be viewed in this photostream. Adding color improved contrast, making the snow and ice easier to see. Some sources suggest that the photographer posed these children, but it's difficult to understand why a boy would leave these cold artifacts on his body and clothing if he were awake. Although the colors I've added are based on conjecture, the suffering here was real and stark.
Three homeless boys do a poor job of pretending to be asleep. Nevertheless, their ragged, grimy condition offers evidence that they are not pretending to be desperately poor. Jacob A. Riis Collection (#122), Museum of the City of New York.
Making the most out of a warm spot on a snow-covered street, homeless barefoot boys sleep piled atop a grated vent hole on Manhattan's lower east side.

Too poor to buy shoes, a ten-year-old girl squeezes out a meager living as a spinner in a cotton mill. (Image by Lewis W. Hine via the Metropolitan Museum of New York. Processed and colorized by Kelly Short using Gimp 2.6.11).
’I am like a caterpillar in a cocoon of paper; all around me are sketches for sculptures, small drawings that seem like moths fluttering against the windows, beating their wings to escape from this tiny space.’
Taken from a car, this little beggar girl was standing near a vehicle ahead....I wish atleast children never had to see a tough life...I wish each one of them could find a warm home, a loving heart, good food to eat, education and a happy childhood....
I wish world was a better place...atleast for the children!

Village: Admiral
Country: Philippines
These children were making there way down from their home in a village named Admiral. The mission group I was with was holding a distribution and feeding program in the village.
Admiral is located in Antipolo and is considered a slum village. Homes are wood and metal and usually 10x10. Several thousand people live in Admiral, most of them children.
I visit Admiral several times a year documenting mission work and helping with humanitarian relief.
This image is also in a short video for a documentary I have. Watch it HERE on Flickr Video.

Quick shots of the statue of Robert Raikes. Had to be quick due to the Tamil Tiger protest heading down the Victoria Embankment on that Saturday.
(if I had more time, may have taken more shots of this particular statue)
Robert Raikes was the founder of Sunday Schools in 1780. This statue went up 100 years later in 1880.
He lived from 1735 - 1811. He organized a Sunday School, primarily for poor children, who were taught to read and to spell to enable then to read the Bible. The Raikes system spread throughout England, and he became known as the founder of Sunday Schools. He gave his publicity in the Gloucester Journal.
