Afghan girl

I really like this picture, it was really famous and get the magazine cover of national geographic in 1985. The foto was taken in 1984 at Peshawar, Pakistan by Steve McCurry in the frontier between Pakistan and Afghanistan, the context on this photo is the terrible afghan war.

The girl on this picture is Sharbat Gula, an orphan girl that is staying at a refuge camp in the Pakistan territory. Steve McCurry found the girl in the school for orphan children, this school was in on tent of the big labyrinth of tents that revels the quantity pf people affected by the war in Afghanistan.

The reason because I choose this picture is the sensation that fills me at seeing it. I see a face that had see many horrors and sadness, but its a pure child face with a beautiful eyes, the intense and extraordinary color of the eyes, it call every one attention.
