Red Couch

I saw this image accidentally in a Vietnamese News website.
Having a white background, it is impressive by the long red coach.
There are three men dressed in black and sit in an not-to-formal way.
It is used to talk about working in the industry society.
Our atmosphere is more modern and convenient.
We can feel it by the attitude of the three men.
Zoom it in, each man has his own space to “live” in. We, hence, realize the characteristics of our workplace: modernization and specialization.
However, the change makes life easier and more professional. So it has the positive points.
Zoom it out, it’s like a box, closed and blocked. People seem to be smaller by their huge modern stuff.
To be more sarcastic, we are like living in jail...
The "artificial" sun is the round light which is put in the middle of the red "box".
Nevertheless, we are pleased to choose the modern life rather than the less one. Because we get used to it, and the more important reason is that we need to go forward, not backward.

The box

The picture somehow reflects the poor condition. It gives us many impressive information and ideas.
Why is the little boy put into the box?
Why is the name of this pic the box?

The tragedy often comes in the worse situation. We can read a sad letter from the pic.
Is it right if I say that the author want people think more about the real-tragedy that happen everyday in front of their eyes.
The time this pic appear is Vietnamese-American war.
These are some of what my narrow eyes can see...
I read the information of the boy in the box, no trousers, he is really small, weak and "fragile".
The only thing may "contain" him is the box. He lies by the diagonal

Named The box, this image can stand for more meanings than what it looks like.
This is a black and white picture which concentrates on the main information by making it brightest.
It's like there is a source of light somewhere above the two little boys.
The floor is covered with small cells which are like leaning.
The older boy is touching the younger boy's hand while his face seem to be a bit sad and scared.

I choose this picture for my first post...
I think of children-baggers and the way they try to survive during the blood time with this two little boys.
War ends, but tears and hurts are still in our heart when we look back to the history.
