Healing Touch

Photographed in Sita Pur, India at an eye camp established to treat

preventable blindness. As always, I appreciate your critiques and

suggestions. Namaste.

 

 

A horrible image, but one that we need to see.

 

A great photograph and one that we should remember.

wow. I really like this photo. The low-saturation, deep shadows, strong expression on the face of the wizened old woman...

the arm extends up into... nothing or heaven, or ...

 

Thanks for sharing!

Well done!

To me a WORLD PRESS PHOTO.very very good!!!!!!!!

Thank you for your comments. I appreciate it very much. Rick

For a portrait photo, it's often the eyes that tell the story and make the picture. You've made an extremely powerful picture without showing the eyes (which is a very clever touch for this particular photo, I think.) This is a very compelling image!

PN will not let me just type in the title, so I repeat "moving". But I will not rate it because this is artless, and I don't want to spoil the quality by rating it.

You have touched my soul with your picture.

Just the touch of a hand can mean so much to someone in need. Beautiful capture.

Rick, this touches the heart.

heart breaking and very touching...

very good, terrific I would even say

You have captured the essence of the human condition. This is the best photo I have seen yet here at Photo.net.

Very dramatic and sad scene!

Such a great capture. Very emotional. Perfectly exposed and good use of lighting.

Nice work.

Kind regards.

I'm a bit late, but Very humain touch you have captured rick. Very touching. 6/7 Pnina

Great is often too used in Photo.net.

I can't find another word that explains this image, maybe because my very poor english...

 

But in this case let me say three times: Great Great Great.

 

Congrats
