out of focus

Not at all, Remi, focus is exactly where I wanted to be. The intention is clear, not the classic version of a child portrait, but the meaning of getting away from something or someone not good. People in focus are thieves, stealing grains from the train 2 or 3 days a week. A large comunity has made it their way of living.

Thanks, Sibin, but lack of sharpness is part of the environment in this place and so, part of this view of sadness, polution and poverty.

Not "out of focus!" Those people in focus, he's - away, really out! That's OK!

Yes, Nina, it was my intention indeed. Thanks.
