An image of great charm . . I suppose I am wrong in thinking this is the local garden center . . smiles . . buy, yes, a touching image.

@AG: Thanks AG! Yes, you are right - it's like a local garden centre. It's my favorite place in our small market town.

This is a lovely candid shot. In the news around here, all we hear and see is the devastation caused by war. Thank you for capturing and sharing what we never see, the beautiful people of Afghanistan.

How much must these sacks weigh?! And again you managed to capture a moment in this girl's posture.

Gosh what a strong little girl and dedicated to her Mama!! I really like this shot because many young people these days take their parents for granted and expect them to give them the world. This little girl wants to give back and so much more!
