What have her eyes seen

Birte, very nice portrait. Eyes ar " talking". light and execution are wonderful.

 

Their precious eyes may have seen a lot of misery, but there is always hope for a better life. Have a nice weekend. Vicente.

Wow Birte, what knocks me out with this one is certainly the gaze, but also the colors. I can't recall ever seeing exactly this combination of colors together, and they are incredibly beautiful -- adding to the beauty of the image as a whole. Well cropped -- forces us into her space, for a close look.

This is by far the best I have ever seen on this subject. You are amazing. 7/7. Best regards, Lawrence

Birte, very impressed for this shot.

It reminds me the famous image of Steve McCurry in the National Geographic of the Afghan girl that later he shot as a grown woman. You've captured as he did, the powerful expression of her eyes, and played masterfully with the light to make this great image.

 

Congratulations! Excellent image, powerful message.

super handling as usual Anto

how many have tried this since Steve McCurry? A lot

I'm not sure that Steve Mac Curry will understand category you have choosen.

 

It is well done, very aesthetic, but sincerely not a documentary.

 

 

Stunning portrait! The story behind the eyes of such a beautiful child.

The image is exquisite, the eyes tell me we have done a terrible wrong.

very beautiful photo and very beautiful eyes

What "terrible wrong" have you done? Curious

breath taking.

Beautiful use of light and shadow. I love her eyes. I am adding this to my favorites.

u r not lens man........u r some thing 

Total perfection even without the context. But when you add the story behind it it is truly amazing. One in a million masterpiece.
