Comment by Mal37: Dangerously close to exploitation, but the composition is pleasing, and the message not entirely negative. There is hope in the symbolism of a lone dove/pigeon. Technically well done, if a bit under exposed.
Comment by tnun: Ah. Posthumous got here first. Said it better and went deeper. I confess I dwell mostly on the "compelling texture that draws the viewer in." Beyond that I am in my own unsettled sea of reflections on the residual transgenerational anger at the military junta: the lone figure, his back to the fire, his face in darkness, is, as posthumous suggests, very unsettling. The fire is abandoned, the anger unfocused.
ETA: This pairs nicely with your graffiti picture. Journalistic commentary invoking the past.
