This guy had an incredibly heavy load on his back. He stopped for a breather and to have his photo taken!

A wonderful portrait, Bob. He has such a wonderful smile yet his life is so arduous. People are very adaptable.

@the lightwriter: There were some children there laughing and joking with him... hence the natural smile
Nice portrait.
