Happy Faces

I took this photograph while driving in Dubai, these are construction workers working on the Dubai metro project, They seemed quite happy to be photographed. What might seem as a normal thing to many is in fact a rarity in the lives of many people, for most people living in rural areas of the developing world being photographed or having a photograph of themselves is quite rare. United Arab Emirates.
