Rear Tires

Rear tires are obviously over-rated and you don't need them when you have a buddy to push you. Panasonic G9, 25mm lens at 1/8000, f/1.2 and ISO 200. Richard

Richard, you certainly have a knack for capturing interesting scenes from everyday life.  I love the humor of seeing the well-worn (ok, nonexistent) rear tire well displayed as the children continue on their journey.  It certainly gives pause to reflect on the collective wealth of many more fortunate children, but my sense is that these kids are happy in the moment.  I like it a lot!

This is so cute Richard.  This is also such a commentary on the human spirit.  How I take so many things for granted.  It is hard to complain about anything when you see the wonderful life and obvious joy in these kids.

On the other hand, this photo shows the resourcefulness of these children in the face of deprivation.  It evokes a sense of sadness in this viewer.
