Beggar




Usually you will be asked for money when walking along a street in India, though I was suddenly surrounded by several school girls with palms extended when I entered a museum. Begging isn't limited to the poor. When your car is stopped in traffic, you are likely to be approached by vendors selling fruit, magazines, or facial tissue. Here I was struck by the age of the man looking for money. NOTE: I have added the head shot since I saw the same man a couple weeks later at the same intersection.
