I like the contrast of their fine faces and smiles, simple but tidy clothes and the surroundings.
Also it teaches us, that not only wealth can make a child smile, even when the life is tough.
Good work.

Tell us where it was taken. That's part of being a photographer. Who, what, when, where, why.

:D thanks a lot for your comment :D

and oh well it was taken very close to my mom's farm at santa rosa guatemala ( a very poor area of the country even if it doesnt seem like it)

she used to have coffee plantations there and offer jobs to the people of the village . some times expending more than the real price of the coffee on the market but my mom likes to help the people..

and why did i take those shots? at first it was for fun 'cause that kids didnt knew what a digital camera was so i take some shots of them and they loved it!

and for the personal reason it was because i like to make the people be aware of the reality of my country they are just focused on what's going on whit the reggaeton and crappy pop things and shitty politics so the photojournalism it's an important way to express myself and my toughts and to show the people how creative can be those kids that doesnt have any education or the most basic stuff for the living.


sorry for the grammar :D
