Wow apparently I missed this on.

I think I missed it because you “replied” to your own post and that took it out of my “unanswered posts” section”.

Sorry about that.

Steve McCurry’s “Afghan Girl” 1985 National Geographic Magazine photograph is certainly a stunning image. It’s one of the all time great images. It’s often used for this assignment and for good reason!

Whats amazing about your piece is that not only did you recognize what inspires you and you researched the story of photograph itself.

You now know the story of the image, more importantly you now have someone you can look to for inspiration:

The idea here is that if you just spend a little time thinking about this you will refine your own area of interest in photography. This in turn will improve your photography.
