The Talking Wall

Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

We see graffiti's everywhere and they are usually eyesores of people vandalising public property. Who says walls don't talk. They do, at least for this one. This became the perfect shot to serve as a reminder to us that the world is turning upside down, people are getting sicker and sicker. At the top you see a child predator stalking the toddler with the bottle. Unfortunately this reminded me of the little girl who was murdered and sexually abused in Malaysia sometime August last year.

Nikon D300 ,Nikkor AF-S 24-70mm f/2.8G ED

Very powerful capture, excellent message and the name for photo... technically speaking composition is really adequate, since without these two dudes, wall itself would be flat... big vote!
