This photograph is perhaps the epitome of how the West perceives Pakistan. Context is everything when handling a lens. This was taken at a protest against the government on the pressing issue of Missing Persons. The woman in the photograph is a tired protester and in her background is the Parliament House guarded by the police, concrete and barbed wire. Residents of Islamabad are now used to driving through military check-points although the psychological effects of such an everyday evasion are not addressed. We are a resilient nation, no doubt.
