 Oh that's easy for once. that afghan girl on the cover of National Geographic in the early 90's, with the piercing green eyes. I think most everybody knows the one, really captured something with that one.

forgive me, i'm a random poster who just happened to see your answer on livejournal on log in! :)

have you compared steve mccurry's new photograph with her old one? it's crazy that she still has the same eyes.

Hi, also a random poster. I came here wondering if anyone else said what you just said, and you had! Kewl!

I love the cover of National Geographic with the other picture of her holding the younger picture of her.

I know right? I don't think somebody from the west could ever convey that complete lack of pretension. We're too worried about the opinions of others no matter how self actualized we think we are.

Reminds me of an LJ icon I saw recently.

The entire frame is a cartoon camera which very slowly takes a snapshop. Next panel says, "Ha! I just stole your soul!"

And yet the act of seeking that and capturing it, changes it.
