Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Afghan_Girl.jpgThe very first time I saw this picture is when my auntie come back home from Washington DC. She had gone to some museums in that city and taken many pictures there, and this picture was one of them. When I looked at the girl in this image, I was extremely impressed by her eyes. It is really a wildly eyes, right? ^__^
Another thing I like in this image is color. I think the photographer was very sensitive and precise when chose the green background for this picture. Do u see that Afghan girl also has green eyes ;). More over, she wear a red scarf (or whatever if you don't agree :D) over her head. It let the image much more mysterious. And, one more thing, red and green are exactly 2 opposite color in the color wheel...well, well, well...interesting, right? Again, I like this image a lot ^___^

Yes! Looks like a wild eyes, and also...a vindictive eyes.
Moreover, to me, some torn pieces of her coat, the dirty traces on her face plus her eyes, her mood...are good presentations of the war...
Her face, mostly her eyes made a great contribution to the whole picture's mystery. Yeah of course the choice of colors are awesome, not only for the 2 well matched colors, but also to add up to the aesthetic and the feel of the photo.
Btw, your eyes are also very beautiful, Thao :p... :D
