Powerful image and powerful words, Saqib. Let's hope it does not fall on deaf ears of politicians and so-called "world leaders".
Good image with nice tight composition and good use of selective focus. Congrats on front-page award.

Ned your observation is correct. The reason I made this shot like the way it is, was to show the subject in dreams where the world around looks dark and pale. As you can see from the original image attached above, there was depth present... but I opted to change it.
Thanks for visiting.
Best Regards,
Saqib Zulfiqar

the absence of a foreground and the completely blurred background make this picture like it was shot up in the space .. it needs some depth, otherwise this is a great shot of strong emotions.
best wishes,
ned

Thank you Robert for your visit and nice comment. If you are in your 30s like me it was very hard to miss the Seattle scene specially with all those adolescence hormones flowing. The trio of the bands was a success in my opinion and the music was unbelievable.

The background work is very well done Saqib. You were quite right that the original was a bit distracting, but this is well seen and blended. The subject is also well seen and captured, with rich colors and contrast that really help set the mood for this scene.
I must say, I am also impressed that you are so famaliar with this song by Temple of the Dog. The lyrics do fit your scene well. Nicely done in all regards.

Thanks for liking the shot Mahamed. The rest unfortunately sad but true. Its a long debate on why how, what and who. I have very strong opinions about these things. But we'll leave that for later.

The colors are pretty much natural. However I changed the background with a shot of dried up branches and leaves and added some Lens blur. I chose this background in line with the theme. The background was shot a few days back in a park near madina road where I work. The lady was shot in 2002 in Lahore.
Glad you liked the emotional part of it as this was the theme of the pic. Thanks for visiting.

Great portraiture with pleasant background colour. But your essay coupled with the subject's face is very disturbing.
