Travel Photo of the Week - Children from Northern Thailand
This installment of the Travel Photo of the Week feature continues with the theme of children. I’ve have stated previously that children are great subjects for photography. Unlike adults, they don’t have any hang-ups or issues about a stranger taking their picture.
From my experience most children are absolutely delighted to pose in front of the camera. In Thailand, I have had children run after me on a number of occasions, begging me to take their picture.
For this photograph, I was touring the rural countryside of Northern Thailand’s Nan Province when I encountered some Thai children huddled together in back of a large flatbed truck. They were returning from school to their rural village. When the driver stopped along the roadside to pick up some bags of rice, the children got off the truck and posed for me in this special group shot.
Most of the kids are wearing some funky T-Shirts. If you look in the upper right corner of the photo, observe that one of the young girls is flashing the victory sign at me.
