Beggar, a photo from Samarkand, Est

Photographer's Note

I met this child in Samarkand near the famous "Siyab" market. He was just following us till the gate, then I decided to give him 200 soums (currency of Uzbekistan) which he is holding. When he saw my camera he posed for me and said thanks for the photo. After 3 months again I met him but this time he was in girl's dress. I was confused, whether he is a boy or a girl. He was still begging...

So touching and sad story, your note is very explicative
He reminds me somebody..
His eye contact with the photographer is wonderful, I can see he is grateful, respectful but he knows the note will not change his life in the long term
Lovely picture,
Have a nice day
