The poverty displayed in the images was humbling & really brought home how privileged we are in this day & age. Some of them looked as though they could have been taken in the 1930's never mind only 40 short years ago. What was amazing though was to see the pleasure people took in their simple existence, portrayed through the wide smiles & laughter on the faces looking back at the camera lens.
