The sadness doesn't show.

Just 2 weeks ago, i had the unique opportunity of being able to go to Vietnam, as a part of a small year 11 school group (only 16 people).The trip was structured so we could truly understand the living conditions, and the people of Vietnam. We were able to do things that i don't think too many other westerners would have been able to do. We had a very rare visit to World Vision village in remote Vietnam, we were able to meet local university students, and had the opportunity to visit another remote Vietnamese school and teach the students English, and play games with them. It was overall an amazing experience, and i'm sure that i will post many more photos of it.
Well about the photo now. It was taken at an SOS village in Vietnam. The children in this village were ones who did not have any parents. The children had either been abandoned, or had their parents pass away recently. They are taken to this SOS village, where they are raised by a SOS mother. One mother to 11 children in a house. It is an amazing program that has been setup for these children. Despite their tragic situation, these children do not seem so show sadness.
Was taken with my D300, Nikkor 18-200mm VR, SB-800 bounced off the (brown) ceiling.
