Spanish actress Penelope Cruz was pained by the plight and suffering of Tibetan kids she photographed on a recent trip to Nepal, reports say.
Cruz considers her passion for photography a difficult one because of the heart-wrenching topics she chooses to cover.
Reports have it that Cruz was almost moved to tears on a recent visit to Nepal when she snapped the feet of refugee children who had escaped across the mountains from Tibet.
Femalefirst quotes Cruz as saying: “When I was in Kathmandu (Nepalese capital) photographing kids who had escaped from Tibet, some who had escaped by walking across the mountains, I photographed their feet. Some had lost toes because of the snow. I had to control myself not to cry. Not out of pity, but seeing how tricky life is and how hard it is to make the right choices.”
Cruz is presently believed to be planning a new exhibition after taking photos of troubled youths at a California hostel.
