Photographer's Note
Even one man alone
Must stand up for human rights
One woman must stand
Against the darkening nights
For the power
Of a group of bigots
Must not prevail
Against the "zealots"
Or those with the ideals
Being counted for human rights
Let no ignorant men or country
Take away your pride and culture.
regards
Manuj Mehta

Hallo Manuj!
An incredble photo which nearly hurts - and an important one! What's going on there in Tibet is a crime - but the world again shows the other way ... Thank you for showing this one!
Greetings from Germany!

Hi Manuj, Good street photo. The angles and anguish make it so emotive and effective. I won't coment too much on this controversy of this, just to say there are twos sides to this story and many forget how unfair the lives of most were before China starting developing this part of the world when serfdom ruled.TFS.

Manuj, this is a moving picture. One that makes us think, that makes our heart pump faster and our pupils dilate...
The expression in her face is so strong, so relevant to the message on her board. Even the tones in the pictures are fitting the message.
It's those images that make people gather together, that help changing the world...
I'm humbled by this picture

hi Manuj
Controversial subject. Sometimes it is difficult to bring western values into Asian context or vice versa, and politics is a dirty game.
What is best for the west, is not good for the east. Which is better?

A very powerful image Manuj - the strength of this person's feelings are so graphically portrayed and the crop on the message is such a dynamic choice - we see enough for the sign to come through loud and clear and this works so much better than if it were displayed fully - an excellent documentary shot.

Hi Manuj,
Wow! Quite an expressive shot for first post! We can almost hear her cry, a mix of anger and sadness. A compelling image that remembers us again the drama of that people who has been subject to genocide, not only cultural, by the tyrants of the new global power that nobody dares to contradict.
Congratulations!
Regards, José.

Beautiful and powerful one, Manuj!
The hand holding the sign, but especially her eyes and
wide opened mouth - I can almost hear her strong shouting
voice coming out of my monitor!
Excellent job,
Robi

Hello Manuj
Perhaps one of the best picture I've seen from of the recent Tibetan agitation, worldwide. The closeup shows anger, the placard shows anguish. Simply amazing a shot. And I agree with you, we cannot keep our eyes & minds closed, but I can openly ask have we as world citizens done enough? Perhaps not.

Angshu
