Portrait of The Life Struggle a Woman and Her Daughter

Hi dear stemians, how are you today. This is my entry for #portraitphotography contest by Hive account@juliank.

This is a portrait of the life a scavenger with his son. He drives rickshaws around town to search for secondhand items that can be recycled and resold.

This middle-aged woman always holds the child up while picking up every piece she finds along the way.

Unfortunately, the girl he always holds is a person with disabilities. Maybe, it makes life more difficult. But it's woman is reluctant to be a beggar, asking for money for people on the streets and in shops, but she prefers her own way, struggles, runs between the hustle and bustle of the City. I do not see what he does is a bad thing. But when I do not care about his terrible suffering. This is the reality in the City where I live in Lhokseumawe, Aceh.

Poverty still exists everywhere, and sometimes it is invisible. But I tried to see it. Though only the photos I share and the mouthful of water I can give her, when I take a picture of her face. I want to give some rewards from this post for a great woman and her daughter.
