I am in love this photograph, it just grabs me every time I see it. The photographer is a man named Danny Goldfield and the story was about all different children living in New York City. This was a young boy by the name of Basim from Iraq. So why did I choose a Life magazine cover? Well, when I was a child my mum had Life magazines from all different decades and I would just sit for hours looking through them at all of the photographs. It blew my mind that people could capture so much thought and emotion into a photo. I believe this photo did just that, captured happiness and yet solitude all at once, absolutely amazing. I also love that the photographer blurred out the back of this photo and made it a closed frame in order to really emphasize the child's face, breath-taking.
