This stray dog photography series, captured by photographer Sam Edmonds, shows a community of orphaned street children and their stray dogs in the Bangladeshi capital Dhaka. The boys live in a park called Robindro Shorbod, which they share with ten beloved stray dogs.

For the series, dubbed 'Robindra Boys,' the photographer asked the boys not to pose, and instead took photos of them as they engaged organically with the street dog dearest to them. The photos have a dark background and show boy and dog in an awkward but comforting embrace.

This stray dog photography series was made possible by Obhoyaronno, an NGO that spays, neuters and vaccinates street dogs before returning them to the location where they were found.
