Today i went to very crowded area for photography. While we were returning to starting point we heard news of explosion that even shaked my home. We had some tea in small hotel people were rushing towards TV to have glimpse of what is happening.



More from the day soon




These two kids showed this place and popped in photo when i was shooting

Glad to hear you are alright and sad that such things are still happening.

:soapboxWhen will people stop hurting each other???? <*/soapbox>

As for the photo with the children - I think they make the photo - that is just too cool.

I just saw the reports on the news - horrible, the crater was amazing. The hotel that was hit would have been where the Australian cricket team would have been staying had they not canceled their tour.

Glad you and your family weren't any closer.


And I agree, the kids really make that shot something more than just geometry

Thanks
Yeah it seems to be very well planned and calculated. Many of my friends work in buildings adjacent to the hotel they were off from work as it was Saturday. There is one more 5 star hotel in town that is more popular among the foreigners i hope it remains safe as that is only hotel left in the city they are also my client for photos.
Anyway i hope issues are solved soon to get rid of these activities.
take care
