Sometimes it's better to use the words of an artist rather than attempt to feel what they felt when taking the photograph. "Poverty is one of the most oppressive realities most of the world lives with throughout their lives..." Photography isn't always going to be a beautiful flower, a luscious person, or a superb piece of architecture...photography will sometimes be the only way that someone can depict life in another part of the country. Photography tells a story no matter how telling that story may be. The Children of Reality by lorrainemd stands for truth, a small piece of integrity in an otherwise dishonest world. This isn't the only powerful image in * lorrainemd's gallery! (Selected by +flummox)
