A simple day in the life...
I was quite moved by this photo series by The Big Picture. Its aim was to show daily life in other parts of the world that we might not be able to see.
Some of the photographs are an eye-opener to the lives of the majority of world’s population. Often these people are living with very little, barely having enough to eat everyday, but the look on their faces show content; content with what they have.
