Chinese teenager stands in front a column of tanks –
Tiananmen Square – June 5, 1989. He was
not seen anywhere after that. Rumor has
it that he was executed a few weeks after that incident.
Truly gut wrenching .... one question though how come you don't have any pics from India.....
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comments Dee. I have not come across any gut wrenching photos from India. If you have one, please send me. I will add it here.
DeleteThese photos speak a lot. The good old saying: a picture is worth a thousand words.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comments Pradeep. Yes, they do indeed.
DeleteI guess many more such incidents weren't captured on camera. Glad that some, like these, were. But nowadays, there is just too much camera everywhere!

Thanks for your comments Rajesh. You are correct. A cameraman should be present at the right moment and at the right time. That is why many such incidents are never captured.
DeleteWait for a more heart-wrenching incident with photo in my next week's blog post.
The first picture shows that humanity is not lost completely and one can see courage and compassion amidst cruelty. Thanks
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comments Mr. KP. You are absolutely correct.
