hello:) first of all i am familiar with the gypsies "unconventional" life style and i agree with you, i faced too many baggers and cons artists and charlatans people and beside we have Roamanis in the old city of Jerusalem too.. :) i took this pic because the poor baby.. i saw all these women who for our opinion even took someone else's baby and beg for money.. i think it's horrible.. but the thing is i can't deny poverty- worldwide and people will always be people and each "culture" has its own unique (or at least used to had)social legitimates valuations regarding earning money.. i agree with you.. but i wasn't really going for the sympathy aspect i was more heading the urban- anthrophotography point of view. reality stamp. but i guess i failed :P anyway, the HUGE question is: did YOU like the photo?! :)
but im sure that unless, most of people read what we just wrote here... they wont understand because, for example, i have a picture of that poor family that lives in the streets of tel aviv... you know... he was an actor and then his wife left him with the kids and then he was living with his mother till she died... and now he takes care of the kids in the streets... and thats real poverty but this picture... is another kind of poverty... and now i know that you understand:)
