       These photos were taken to acknowledge and represent just a snapshot of the personalities of the many people from countless backgrounds and ethnicities that are around us everyday.          All throughout our lives until this point, we have all gone about each day passing by and interacting with so many people, no matter how briefly. It's definitely not possible to commit each and every one of them to memory, and it's especially easy to forget just how unique each individual is. The girl you pass by every day on your way to your first period class may be so much more interesting than you think. It's impossible to get to know everybody, and because of the busy way of life that has come to become the norm, people tend to make initial judgments about others based solely on what they see on the outside. However, each individual has a unique life story and realm of experience, but it's often easy to forget this. Some people may fee...

Rooftop Dreams, Varanasi Location: Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh, India Photographer: Yasmin Mund It was 5:30 a.m. and I had just arrived in Varanasi, India, off a sleeper train. I got to my guesthouse and instinctively climbed the seven flights of stairs to see the sunrise over the famous Ganges River.

What can you tell me about how this person lived? How did you arrive at that idea? I can tell that the boy with no arms has lived a hard life. He is waiting for things to improve in his life. He probably doesn't even understand the gravity of the war and doesn't know when things will get better. I can infer all of this, because of the weary and confused look on his face. He has probably seen much more violence and suffering than he should be seeing at his age. What interests you most about this work of art? The thing that most interests me about this picture is the fact that the boy with no arms is separated from the other two boys, probably because they belong to opposite sides of the war. Why do you suppose the artist made this photograph? What makes you think that? I think the artist made this photograph because he/she wanted to show that the war in the Middle East is affecting even the smallest of children who don't even fully understand what's going on a...
