Humble Home
By Ernest

South Africa

Nothing is more humbling to me than to see how the poor cope. This shot taken when I stopped on the freeway. The Squatter camp is on the side of the road, only the barb wire fence protects the children from getting on the freeway :-(

Sony 717
1/320s f/4.0 at 48.5mm iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

In one of his writings, Baha'u'llah says, "Tell the rich of the midnight sighing of the poor." This shot reminds me of what I have, that others would be very grateful for. I should appreciate my good fortune.
