Bless you. This message needs to be spread long and wide, especially here in the U.S. Most people think child trafficking is a foreign problem when we have small children being abducted every day right here in the good ol' U.S. of A. Kudos for a great shot and an even better message.

Thank you. The image itself is not up to much but it's certainly the message that counts with this one. It's always nice to spread a little awareness

Thanks again.

Hey Anni.. thanks for taking the time to have a look at my photographs.

As you well know, SE Asia is photo heaven, lot's of great photographs to take.. You should definately look at buying yourself a cheap digital if you're going to hang out there. You'll really appreciate it when you get back to Finland and have such incredible memories in photographs

Thanks so much for the message..

Bevels.

Disturbing.

Having experienced child prostitution, and knowing what it's like to be worth only fifty dollars in return for startling atrocities, I thank you.

Artistically, I think it is a very striking picture, I am so happy to have discovered your artwork. This is powerful stuff. I'm sure you hear that a lot, but it's not something I say lightly. I don't tend to fave photographs half as much as traditional artwork, but I can't leave this one alone.

Very nice work on this. The message is very powerful and the child is such a cutie. Poor little thing.

Yeah.. certainly a harsh reality. Thanks for looking.

You know I think if there was anything "artistically stronger" about this photo, as you put it, one might not see the message as clearly. In its current form, this speaks volumes.

Thanks mate.. I wish the photo itself was a bit artistically stronger, but the message is good.

Thanks for the comment

Kathumane [2006-06-19 09:03:58 +0000 UTC]

Yeah I agree with ~Nighthaze the combination of the sign and the child in front makes an effective image. the message is carried much further with the inclusion of an example that could suffer from child abuse.

Thanks.. Very true, if people just glance at an image like this and grasp a single second of awareness then it's done it's job. Not a very good photo but I wanted to post it for the message.
