Let’s play war games.
We’ll fight for our right to fight.
I'll kill you gently, with a smile.
And get away with it, with the beauty of politics

Let’s shake bloody hand,
Let’s say one thing, and do another.
Let’s smile and talk of peace,
While our legs, kicking under the table.

Let’s play peace games,
With a fist and a smile

Taken with Film (you won't find many of those in my gallery) in my trip to India.
This shot was featured in a few exhibitions dedicated to peace and understanding. I'm very proud of it.
Just a little clarification: The short poem is not aimed at this sweet kid. In no way is he to blame by the sarcasm of the words. This kid was playing some war games with his friends, and in a split second i got this genuine fist and a smile.

I closed the picture on top of another file, so ignore the EXIF data shown.

You keep asking about PS work, so I'll say in advance - No PS

Fantastic shot mate,

Have you done anything to it in photoshop or the likes?

Nothing.
Directly from the scan, only did the frame.

Truly remarkable shot. You captured such a sincere moment that we can't help but smile back.

The perk to film: the graininess almost always looks spectacular. It suits this shot perfectly. Great work...the colors are astounding. :+fav:
