1/17/08 - The Eyes Have It.

Duk Payuel, Southern Sudan

January 11, 2008 Totally Informal Transglobal Challenge, "The Eyes Have It". I took this picture on a recent trip to the Dinka village of Duk Payuel in South Sudan.

What is it that these eyes have? Several things, I think:
- a picture of the lives that these children must live,
- a hope for a better future,
- the dirt and dust of Southern Sudan, and,
- if you look carefully, perfect reflections of the photographer (me) in their eyes.

One sees this picture and understands why John Bul Dau, one of the lost boys of Sudan, said, "God grew tired of us."
