    There are [5] photos from Pakistan

    Town under water. A time that comes after several decades….! Last year curiosity forced me to took my camera went directly to areas where had heard for last two months that flood is now reached in our areas. And it was very frightening, disastrous, merciless nature’s fury. I have seen island but it was the first time for me when I turned my eyes through lens and suddenly found, something new, leaving not only a single minute to ignore. When this place was invaded by water after several decades, it was my first time in my life when I saw this flood. Views[498] Old woman. Applying rule of third, i clicked simply from the front window. Having reached at home i selected this picture to be priorities. This woman has no home, no food, even not a personal space to call or name it as property or simply put in words, she has nothing left. She was watching me continuously in a complete strange way, when I met her do you know what she said her first words. “Do you know scroching sun ” I: replied yes! She said: I hate it. From that moment onwards one and half year has passed these words still pain me a lot. Lastly the Women should be appreciated for patience throughout a tough exam of disaster fighting the poverty. Or could there be other words to express her hopelessness. Views[396] No way ahead. While taking clicks there was a point in area where we can’t go ahead, this small road to town ended before the town come. It was the brutality of the water which silently showed me a strange and new thing to click. The man in the picture stopped when he reached at this end of the road, thinking for a while “What this was?” This man couldn’t go to his home because there was no way to go there and finally there was nothing left behind. This is all i have captured in incredible way… Views[796] Innocent girl. What can we expect that what were the day dreams or what this innocent, unaware girl was wondering? The moment i saw the subject my camera said to me bravo. These thoughts posed me. But we can’t exactly understand the feelings of this innocent face. The circumstances were loudly saying that this girl have to leave as soon as possible, because a silent disaster was moving towards them inch by inch. Except the subject the surroundings are loudly whispering tragedies caused by poverty below the line. Views[744] Tree underwater. Fertile land where people cultivate their crops and participate in National GDP but at this movement there is only dominance of natures fury, no matter who, where and what you are simply run a way. I think this picture is a rarity while photography where the trees are almost totally under water. Babbul (tree) which is almost always found in thick jungles, but this picture tells quite opposite story. Side effects after the flood were totally different and new to see. Later trees were turned into home for spiders. Views[475]
