Photographer’s Note

An elderly Arab woman sits at the Damsacus Gate into the Old City of Jerusalem - people collectively worth many millions of sheckles must pass by her every day.......the moment she was framed by the passing woman said something profound to me about the inequalities found in any society.....although here the complexities of inequality and injustice are labyrinthine.........................

Hello Kev,
Strange..no points for this? Yet it says so much with so little, just a huddled figure and a pair of ruahing legs.Mmmm...people only seem to want pretty pictures. But life is not all prettiness, not by a long chalk.

Hello Kevin,

Inequality and injustice combined with a handsome portion of dispossession and you have the fate of the Palestinian people. Great shot; yet so neglected.

Thanks for sharing

Hello Kev,

This is a beautiful shot... inequality and injustice are something can't be extinguished unless the realization comes from our soul. You have captured a very thoughtful shot. TFS.

Regards,
Partha.
