Here is a previous post of the photo that was accepted:       https://marlandphotos.com/2012/06/17/boli-khela-wrestling/

This young girl is a rag-picker.  She goes out every morning to collect recyclable items such as paper and plastic to sell.  The rag-pickers typically are carrying a big burlap bag which hopefully gets filled!

I shot this photo at ISO 5,000 which accounts for the grain.  It was at 21 mm, 1/50th sec, and f/3.5 using a 18-55 Canon kit lens.
