Description
A homeless boy outside of a market in Bangkok. I thought it was an interesting contrast how there were people walking by with shopping bags while he was begging for money.Related content

Very emotional picture... you caught the pure sadness in that! Truth is sometimes so painful - and such pictures force us not to close our eyes.

I hate you so much...
I never said that I don't spend money on materials while other people are starving, I'm not trying to preach. I'm just trying to show a contrast between certain people.
Anyways I took this with my old camera, if you had read the comment one above yours.

Did you give him any money because it would be quite hypocritical taking a picture of the inequality while he is watching you take a picture of him with an expensive camera. But either way i like the picture good job.

Yes, I did give him money.
And how do you know my camera is expensive? It's thirty years old and my grandpa gave it to me...It's falling apart.
Thank's for the compliment anyway.

this picture really speaks out on how people act too caught up in their own lifes to notice someone else suffering right next to them

Wow. Now I'm all depressed. Makes me feel like I'm really spoiled, you know? Almost makes me feel dirty. Well, one things for sure, I'm not gonna be doing any shopping anytime soon.
