Caught in the Air, by Ryszard Wierzbicki
This photograph was taken during my Laos trip in December 2012, on the way from Vientiane to Luang Prabang. Being armed with Santa hats and bag of lollipops I joined a group of girls who was playing by the road. I believe this “Caught in the air” moment captured the great enjoyment of their simple play.
