welcome guys.

Yes, that girl had/has extremely beautiful eyes, as an adult you can see that she has a hard life

I get the National Geographic Magazine every month, it really is very very interesting

That never convinced me... did she have a nose operation? ;o)

c'ome on that's a different person!

I think that was just to promote the photograher because that was one of his most famous pictures and to find the actual woman at the same time the world had its focus on that country because of the war would sell plenty of magazines.
