Curiosity by Ryszard Wierzbicki

This Photo was made during my lonesome trip by a boat to the small village near Ngong Khiew in Laos. I purchased sweets for the Kids and being guided by a local teenage boy from the village I succeeded to meet a lot of attention of local community and took a chance of making few great pictures. The Girl was very shy, was hiding behind her mom’s legs … but was curious at the same time seeing an unknown stranger.
