Description
sunda kelapajakarta, indonesia
a group of kids in a poor part of town.
the sea level had risen over the past few days and their slums were flooded.
there was over a foot of water in some places. didn't want to touch it. smelled awful. my shoes smell now too. they smelled before though.
this just shows the resilience of children. wherever. aceh. jakarta. anywhere in the world. they will always give you a smile.

excellent shot.. i love this theme of children, and what you've said...
their innocence is never the first casualty of disaster.
