Black Lenses of the World
by Black lenses symbolize the underlying side of life in a black and white photo.
Heather McClintock – United States
Photograph shows the great compassion of a mother.
Resting on my mum’s leg though not as soft as a mattress, but I feel convenient here. Mother’ love is indeed priceless.
Karl Hoffman – United States
Photograph shows a theme of non-discrimination.
Different hands were put on a handcuff with equal treat.
Richard Mills -Iceland

People are emotionally torn by the tragic event.
Julio Hardy －Spain
Photograph symbolizes the meaning of the real life.
We think it is evil, but she thinks she can rescue the truth. Sometimes, the white is buried beneath the black.

The arrival of the scariest infectious diseases had brought nightmare to people’s life. Facing these diseases, human become so fragile and terrified.
Adam Hinton -United Kingdom
This is a slum seen in Brazil.
Kids here do not know what a slum is; they thought here is their “theme park”.

Photograph shows a funeral of a Hungarian’s boy.
Kid, walk slowly, you’ll see a bright light, perhaps there’ll not be as bad as you thought like this world.
Paul Hardy Carter －United States
Photograph shows a beach packed with people.
People sacrifice for their own needs, but God sacrifice for all.
Hillegas-David- France
This lonely old woman received a government’s relief fund.
Hmmm…… there’re so many lonely and abandoned people in this world who really needs this relief badly to survive.
Adam Hinton – United Kingdom

No matter how fascinating the outside world is, I’m not willing to wake up.

If you permit me to clarify on my photo: the people weren’t really happy, they were opposition candidate supporters in rigged elections, and the shot was taken during post-election protest. They are laughing to sarcastic comment by one of the speakers. By the end of week that followed, hundreds of them were arrested.

thanks for posting these photos, it is sad to see that in 21th century there are so much differences among humans. Unfortunately animals do not have this problem this much, since they do not store wealth. only this comes from humans’ ability to think and you know what this is the maximum thing they can do, can a human think more than himself !?
