Thanks for looking.

I think my heart is 'tired'.........your photos are 'life' and we are so spoiled...we have such fragile ego's and for what...we worry about low ratings on a photo...how important is that compared to what unspeakable conditions people are living in ......it would have been so easy to pass these by...and not face what is so difficult to look at. I don't know how you do it...Birte. Your are a 'brave heart'.....most sincerely, Gail

Poignant one. I wonder what was this expression about. Was she crying--a mournful sob. Or was it a grimace of pain ? Or just as mundane as waiting for her turn at the water tap. I wonder.

Amazing shot. Excellent. Look at her hands. This little girl is tired of working. Look at her eyes: wishing of playing around in the sea of chilhood carelessness. I rate this photo equal to "Afgan Girl".

effective image -- her hands tell multiple stories: of course of her harsh life of toil, but also of her cheerfulness before the camera... she shyly averts her eyes (looking no doubt) at a familiar someone) and hides her charming smile with those hands

BRAVO. Great portrait 7

Again a brilliant portrait, Birte...very brilliantly you have captured the girl's expression...simply wonderful...my best

very interesting and natural expression of her face and her hand. That give to the work one special character. Nice work...!
