Your "portraits" of people are too static and posed (although very

I'm going to respectfully disagree. There are some very interesting faces in
that collection. It's fun to think about the things that formed those faces.
The images of how much artillery is an important part of their lives says
much about the ignorance of their culture and childish chosen religion(s).

It says that for the last hundred or so years they've been fighting a
civil war and been fighting off invading foreign armies who were
taking sides at the same time.

This could be why the rest of the world has advanced into the 21st century
and they're still a 3rd-world country with nothing but rocks and sand to
show for their beliefs and values for the last 2000 years.

I think it's very impressive that they beat off the Russian army and
are now giving the US army a very hard time.
