Description

--Street Photography Shoot-out Contest--

** Exposure Information:
Shutter speed : 1/125
Diafragma : f 8

Situation on the location was so cloudy that’s why the film that I use is Kodak Tmax Professional 400 B/W. And why I choose f/stop 8 because I like the background (which is the sidewalk floor behind the kids) too. In order to make a Background an so people can really see in where actually the children were sleeping.

Camera : Canon EOS 500N
Lens : Canon Zoom Lens EF 35-80mm 1:4-5.6 II
ISO : 400
Film : Kodak Tmax Professional 400 B/W

What I motivated to make this photo because in Bandung, West Java, Indonesia which is the town I was lived, the days before I take this photo I was read a local newspaper its told that in that place in front of BIP mall at Jalan Merdeka there was a homeless control by the local goverment because a few days ahead there will be a 50th ASIA AFRICA CONFERENCE in Bandung on April 2005.

I was so curious what happen after the control. So I make a move to Jalan Merdeka, and what I found the homeless still there and after that government control they were back to the street including their children. Then I make a shot just want to tell the world the truth what really happen around me in Bandung in this case is the children. When I see them I think I was so lucky to what I have in this life. Makes me wonder if someday I can help them with my own money to give them education and better life. Hopefully someday.
