This is my entry for this weeks Photo Friday Weekly Photo Challenge. This week’s theme is Poverty.
My photograph shows an old man blowing bubbles to attract the attention of the promenaders at the Baywalk, Roxas Boulevard in Manila, Philippines for his assorted items on sale. Quite a number of Filipinos today live below the poverty line index. A sad reality the goverment needs to address.
