This photograph is one of the images taken by the photographic journalist Sebastiao Salgado. He worked independently on many different projects and had many of them pubished in magazines and books. Selgado was interested in capturing images that would show the harsh realities of the world. He was not only successful at achieving this goal but made many very succesful images such as this one. The source of soft almost heavenly light coming through the trees draws you to the picture and juxtaposes with the sense of hopelessness in the image.
