#10 National Geographic (June 1985)Photographer Steve McCurry immortalized the haunted eyes of a 12-year-old refugee in a camp on the Afghanistan-Pakistan border. Soviet helicopters destroyed her village and family, forcing her to make a two-week trek out of the perilous mountains of Afghanistan. The photo became a National Geographic icon after it was published on the cover in June 1985. Since then, this raw, untouched image has been used on rugs and tattoos, making it one of the most widely reproduced photos in the world.

Critique: The photo of the girl is beautiful. I love that it is a raw untouched image as it said in the discription above. The was she is angled and the was her eyes pop out at you with such hauntingness and mystery but also so much sadness and morning for her family. She is shown in her natural state of person.
