Contrast at Point of View

Life is heavy for some people, but simply happy for another.

I was on my way to Cu Chi Tunnel from Ho Chi Minh City by public transport last April 2014. On the bus, I sat at the opposite a man and his cute little girl. She looked so happy and excited. She almost couldn’t stop raving about anything. But her father only occasionaly respon. 

I couldn’t refrain my self to not took this fascinating view. I hope those Vietnamese won’t angry me because I have photographed them in silence. I hope.

At the image, they look like seeing at the same thing, but their expression is so different. It makes me wanna go back into the kids. A time when life is just to be happy, without thinking of many thing that are complicated.

    someday her father will miss the moment like this and hope that he could turn back the time 😦

    Beautiful capture, and very sensitive interpretation – I thought the same when I saw it… their expressions really contrast with one another. The little girl looks like a treasure that her father is not fully appreciating because he’s got other worries reflected in his eyes. Being able to appreciate a moment for what it is – without worry about past or future – is a great gift.
