The sad thing here is that he's probably one of the luckier ones, actually having a house and decent job (I assume it's decent, I don't know how much money he gets). Good for him!

This should be higher up!

I want to acknowledge these photos yet it seems a crass to like these photos. They are raw and ugly but so important to highlight the chronic unbalance between rich and poor. So I like them in acknowledgment of the power of what they are showing.

My god, she is brave

This photo brings me joy. Look at the innocence in their smiles. They are happy no matter what the circumstances are. Powerful!

This is killing me!

It's amazing to see such a beautiful smile as this woman has, despite their tragic living conditions.

So dangerous. My goodness--the lights of those trains in the distance look so menacing.

But one thing is universal no matter your situation grandchildren equal happiness

These are playing next to the railway, but how about those in the background.....

Oh my goodness... this is so sad.

Sad to see this, but mostly they refuse to be relocated

I hope she can read and write.

Looks like a bubble

Oh my god these images are so powerful

I will say now I don't know a whole lot about the culture or the economy of Indonesia however I will say that seeing someone trying to make it in life and then pointing out the stuff he "should" do is kind of crappy to me. I'm going to say there probably isn't a lot of education about tobacco in his country and as for the tattoos for all you know they were free. Also you don't know if he is actually smoking tobacco or some weed he found on the side of the road. I just hate how we find it so easy to judge other people for what they are doing wrong instead of giving them a little credit for trying

So beautiful to see, but Aldo so heartbreaking❤️

Small but neat

But he can afford tattoo's and cigarettes?

i love the contrast between the bright bink of her dress and grey surrounding, the way she is playing with that old rope breaks my heart, she looks so tired

Why does this keep saying "comfortably"?! Doing what you must, sitting where you can, surviving in poverty dosen't necessarily equal comfort!!

Kid is walking barefoot on stones. Ouch.
