A super capture, wonderful in it's simplicity, made me think of the works of Cartier-Bresson.

Copyright Violation by Ekushey TV
RainWalker (59 months ago | reply)
It's really painful to see someone using your work of creation and not giving you the credit ... did you call ETV and asked them about it?? My suggestion is to call them up and apologize for this action and they should acknowledge this action on-screen or in public...if they don't ... tell them that you would bring the matter in public...

Its all your support and encouragement that made this possible. All the other photographs in the contest were so good which makes the success all the more enjoying!! This raises my own expectations on myself and motivates me to give more effort into this creative work!!
At this joyous moment I feel this to be a win against the unethical work of Ekushey TV and other people with a similar mindset who to try to take away the rightful credit for creative works!! Thank you all for the support!!

Nice shot. 'Spirit of life'
picazam (58 months ago | reply)
It's freedom. Excellent black and white photograph. Perfect shot. It seems like the boy running towards freedom. I love his reflection on the road covered with rain water. I like your timing. The boy is actually on the air while you took this shot. His five finger is wide open and the bare feet describes that he can't wait to run towards freedom and freedom is somewhere close to where he is. Perfect and brilliant.
