Priceless Photos

Have you ever felt what humanity is? Well we all do most of the times when we encounter War, Mass murders, Natural calamities, Deaths and what? “Sufferings”. Even by the time you finish watching the following 30 Pictures that shocked the world, you may feel Humane!

I Don’t know whether heaven exists, I don’t know about hell either. But I am sure we can create any one of the both right here on earth during our lives. We created more hell in the earth than the heavens. 

Hope we realize to carry humanity all the time in our souls and try to be Humans!

Migrant Mother by Dorothea Lange

Taken by Dorothea Lange. Just Listen what He has to say about this picture, “I saw and approached the hungry and desperate mother, as if drawn by a magnet. I do not remember how I explained my presence or my camera to her, but I do remember she asked me no questions. I made five exposures, working closer and closer from the same direction. I did not ask her name or her history. She told me her age, that she was thirty-two. She said that they had been living on frozen vegetables from the surrounding fields, and birds that the children killed. She had just sold the tires from her car to buy food. There she sat in that lean-to tent with her children huddled around her, and seemed to know that my pictures might help her, and so she helped me. There was a sort of equality about it.”
