KODACHROME and artists as Steve McCurry changed the art of seeing back in those good ol' film days. No digital procedure could achieve similiar results. It seems, that in our days technical perfectness is more important than artificial expression.

The one who got rich with the eyes of Afghan girls😊

She was groomed into persuading her to having her photo taken. The audacity worsens, when her Father Or Grandmother never even gave consent. He never even cared to ask her name, her age, her story and where she lived. She then lived 17 years in poverty.

Exactly he profited while she and her family were starving. Poor people are unaware of their rights and when they should be asking for pay.

Did you listen to how Curry went back, found her and bought a house for her? It seems her government, elders and authorities did the real harm. At least it seems Curry tried to do the right thing and share some of the rewards.
