Brilliant pic
For me the kid’s expression of anger and force, with the trooper in the BG makes it a wonderful and connected journalistic image. Thanks for adding it to the Art of the Middle East group.
I agree with Eyal.
I think its a look of defiance though…
Excellent shot.
Stunning, stunning image…what else could I add?
Excellent work!
awesome depth…im not talking about the focus
outstanding picture.. it conveys so much within it.
It’s so sad the children have to grow up in a world like that…Excellent capture though =)
the childs look is the same on either side of the war.
very good capture
Strong and powerful!!!
