Picture description

This picture is most probably taken in a foreign country, due to the unfamiliar surroundings or environment. In the background, there are some bushes, and there is are two adults standing, one of them carrying a child. He could be standing up as there is not enough seats to accommodate him and the child.

In the foreground, we can see a lot of parents, carrying a young baby in their arms. They seem to be waiting for something, and have their belongings with them. From this, i infer that the country may have experienced some natural disasters, causing the people to lose their homes. This is why they have to wait outside to either wait for a space to provide lodging for them, or seek help.

My attention is drawn to a man who is standing right in front of a sign, even though the sign is not clear enough to be seen. The man seems to be quite worried, or having a look of not knowing what to do. He is carrying a child in his arms, and another in a pram. The children seems to be having a very bored look, perhaps they have been waiting for quite awhile, and they are getting a little impatient. Also, it makes me wonder why the mother was not present at the scene, with the husband. I think that the mother could have been busy, or either that the father was divorced with two child.

To the right side, there is this Indian or Malay lady who was speaking on the phone. Her face seems to reveal sadness, dolefulness. She could be calling home to inform her family of the situation, and to report to them that they are safe and sound. Also the lady beside her, is also speaking on the phone while comforting her child. The situation could be quite grim, as the people had a stern look on their faces, and both of them were talking quite seriously on the phone, from my inferrence.

From these, we can see that all parents care a lot about their children, and never fails to stay by their side. In cases of natural disasters, or other events, parents are more frantic about the safety of their children, compared to their own safety. I suggest that the government in the country do something about the situation of having to wait in front of the place, and improve it. Also, the people could have been more organised to allow things to be done more smoothly. As a Singaporean, we should be proud of the country, and be thankful that most of us have a shelter over our heads.

Parents are the guardian angels of children.
