myth of photographic truth


This picture just looks like three men sitting on the side of the road looking at something, we do not know what they are looking at at first. When we cropp images sometimes we loose the real meaning of the image. When you look at the original photo you can see what they are looking at and why they are sitting on the side of the street.
The men are sitting on the side of the road because they are being forced to sit there by military men. They are looking at what could be a friend or family member getting questioned by a man with a gun.
