Description
This image could be viewed as comical, if you like...i was gonna name it STFU& TATK (&and throw away the key), but i actually view it as more of an allegory....Imagine all those in the world that cannot speak freely...Imagine not being able to speak freely about political views, individuals in power, the weaknesses in the system that is supposed to protect and nuture you, the crimes against human rights commited against you and your the ones you love. Can you imagine?
In Vietnam, our guides were afraid to speak about the government, for fear of persecution...
Imagine the fear.
Imagine being imprisioned by the silence.

Great shot, very moving once I had read the description. It's a shame that so much people has to live like that every day... Our world is far from perfect, isn't it.
Beautiful work.

Beautiful and sad !
You captured really well the 'feeling' of silence.
The choice of model, mimi artist, gives really strong meaning for all that 'silence'
that people are forced to.
The way you cropped the shot, models expression and those 'bars', just stunning.
