Blue Shoes

The Face of a Generation


This woman was definitely my favourite encounter of the trip. I came across her in the fishing town of Essaouira where she was begging on the street. I gave her some money for the photo, an exchange she seemed pretty happy with. 
If you look at the bike in the background you can see through relativity just how tiny and hunched over she is. There was lots of beggars in Morocco but she stood out as being particularly old. I love the colours of the picture..
