Hello Friends
A Tibetan Shouting slogans againts China.
as we all know that yesterday there were more killings in Lhasa, Monks were killed bruetly by chinese soldiers. China has given an ultimatum to Monks who were struggling for their freedom, to surrender for nothing. if they dont surrender they will be killed.
Now you can imagine what kind of Dictatorship china has.
I had a word with a Tibetan Offical yesterday on phone, she has told me that.
"We are very busy with the injured people now -- there are many people injured here. Definitely many people have died due to the firing on Monks who wer on hunger strike, but I don't know how many,".
i in India had an interview with a tibetan who has arrived today morning from Tibet, she has told that the news from chinese sources are all wrong. they are potraying that tibetans are creating problems and things will be under control, but the truth is totaly opposite. chinese wants to destroy the culture of Tibet and they are asking poor tibetan to stop worshiping Dalai Lama (His Holiness, as we all knows that he Nobel peace awarde.)
I think this is the concern of all of us.
it is for the sake of Humanity, we all must come forward and stand for their freedom.

with thanks

This has been happening for such a long time... My hearth is broken and my prayers go to those people with respect and love.

Not a bad capture Manuj. Obviously the subject matter behind your photograph is powerful.

I think this shot would be better if it was either wider - and we could see his cropped hand - or if it was tighter on his face. Composition is otherwise ok in my opinion.

I know it's a cliche - but would black-and-white be a more powerful delivery on subject? I don't know ...
