I remember a picture by Ernst Haas of an anxious mother carrying the portrait of her soldier son, hoping someone would recognize him, awaiting any news of his fate. This picturre has the same unrelenting immediacy. Bravo!!!

Classic image. Vote.

Powerful image. Her concentrated (and sad?) expression is wonderful, the diagonal in the composition too, and, most of all, I find your black and white very effective here.

Another meaningful page of your fantastic people's story.
How can you take pictures like this one, without making the subject look directly into your lens?
I missed your photos...

The treatment of tones adds to the sadness of her face!
Very nice picture.

A thinking thought of what needs to be done this day...Very powerful again. This shot says so much and I love the detail of her left hand,that carries her shopping bag.

Bravo Antonis!V!

even without that perfect title, this shot tells it all. i still cant figure out how you getaway without them noticing you clicked from that close.

She appears to smile a little, like she is happy with herself and the world around her :)
