Since they were originally laid down of tin shacks and UN marked tents shortly after 1948, Palestinian refugee camps continuously grow into unorganized and densely inhabited neighborhoods. This particular camp in Amman – Jordan stands witness to more than 60 years of Palestinian Diaspora.

intense image and subject..I love it as is composed and fab lighting; could be an illustration from the book The Kite Runner...did you use a particular action for PP?
really works well as an abstract...good stories going on all over the image, and a feast for the eyes. It makes me want to look at it over and over to see more in the shot...love it 8
great great image. beautiful effect the car that seems prisoner of the wires, the line of the wires that run across the image, the laundry everywhere and life in the way. the contrast between the modern antennas on the buildings and the age of the buildings is very nice. as last thing the great colours. an excellent image. 10
This is an interesting photo. Lots of visual interest. I like how this captures what appears to be old buildings/homes (an old world feel) juxtaposed with modern amenities (satellite dishes, tv antennas, cars, etc). Nice photo.
