Visitors are Here, by Ryszard Wierzbicki

Another of my photographs from Bodh Gaya, India, in July 2011, where these two curious kids were watching visitors. Kids like these always appear in front of tourists out of nowhere, but they are a great topic for documentary photography. These two poor kids were particularly interested in my camera lens.
