Hello Arijit,
It is a pity that the kid has to feed himself and the little child on his lap being on streets begging. . it is heart breaking. The responsibility is too much for this little child. You are right that we only use them for taking snaps and move on.

I like the calm face of the kid. I am not even sure that someone is using him to make money. I have heard stories like that.

A very beautiful shot with so much emotions.

Lakshmi

Hello dear Arijit,

This is a very difficult photograph to comment on. We all know that “poverty” is one of the many problems facing the world. But in order for us to discuss the problem, we must first know the precise context. For example, we don’t know the exact circumstance concerning those two children. Are they really brothers? Where are they from? How do they really live? There are too many unknowns. Without knowing the exact circumstances, it is almost impossible to make comments. And if we are to make comments on such image as this one without the context, we could only be making irresponsible commentaries. So, you need to really think about them. Simply pointing your camera at someone perhaps is not a proper approach to address the problem. This is not a criticism, but please think about it as a friendly suggestion.

With my very best regards,
Have a very fruitful weekend, Arijit
Nobu.

Hi Arijit.
A superb portrait with these children, a beautiful expression of the older child, with that smart look that you look carefully, holding in his arms, I guess the little brother.
Impact a little, empty plate in his hand, asking to be offered something, it's a very good picture and impressive.
Have a nice weekend.
Best regards.
Luis.

Hello Arijit,
a really hard scene with the little boy with the baby in his head to go begging in the streets of Kolkata.I like the vertical and the B/W format as the realization of the daily life of the city.

Regards,Danos

Hello Arijit,

The world is very hard for his fellow men, the one to much the other very poor.
This is the world on his narrowest.
Sharpness and clarity be superb.
Good composition, nice presentation. TFS.

Best regards,
John.

Bonjour, Arijit,
Difficile de ne pas être touché par cette prise de vue.
Malgré la pauvreté manifeste, le regard de ce jeune enfant garde une pointe d'espoir.
Merci pour ce partage.
Amitiés.
