About this work
Iraqi militiaman at Sabaa Nissan ('the 7th of April') water treatment plant in Baghdad. I managed to snap a couple of photos of this lovely old gentleman while I was touring Sabaa Nissan as part of the Human Shield Action to Iraq. The photo is amazingly detailed; you can see every separate hair on his face and my reflection in his bright eyes. I didn't get his name unfortunately because I couldn't speak enough Arabic and he had a quiet demeanor. I often wonder if he's still alive.
