Portraits Steve McCurry

When we were younger our parents were proud subscribers to National Geographic magazine and we loved sifting through the volumes collected over the years but nothing captured our interest like this photo here. It was haunting and desperate, sad and beautiful and frankly we were too young at the time to fully understand the complexity but that image has always stayed with us. The photographer that captured the Afghan girl, Steve McCurry has released a book of his exceptional photographs encompassing the last 30 years of global travel and the unique street  portraits that have gained him such acclaim. Available here.
