Speaking With Their Eyes

A dear friend introduced me to the work of Vivian Maier at the weekend.
I had a visit to the website and she was a fascinating woman - a nanny and a loner - who took her camera out with her. 
Thanks to Maier, there's a vivid record of the strangeness of everyday life from the US (during the fifites, sixties and seventies) but also further afield; as she was a great traveller.
I grabbed a few photos of children as I loved the poignancy in their little eyes - innocence and so much knowing...
