Description I took this shot at Candau-ay, Dumaguete City, where the city's dumpsite is located. When I arrived at the place, this young girl collecting some scraps from the dump caught my attention so as my heart.
What she's doing is not only for herself, but also helping her family to sustain their daily needs. I think she's the youngest among the scavengers who were there that time.
I hope someone will notice and do something to help this kind of scarcity.

as i was looking at this...i noticed the trash, the child, and the fat man on the bag..

what stood out the most?

the flies hovering over her next meal.

that killed me the most.
