On the east coast of Sri Lanka, in 1978. We had been invited to the house (hut) of a waiter of our hotel. Here, with his family.

Gian Paulo your photo is interresting, and a bit "edgy", if that's the right term? What's the story behind the child's left leg? I'm curious about all of thier feet. I think that the mother almost looks like a maniquin, yet the child looks so yearning up towards her.

Ortho 158, I really like this capture of the family. I like how you captured them not looking at the camera, just focused on each other.

Would love to know more about them, such as: Are the three tall young ladies his wives, and are their children in front of them? (And did the father know that his zipper is down? ;-)

I like the story of you being invited into their home. That must mean that the waiter liked and trusted you. Very nice.
