I am a 70 year old painter living in UK. I am doing a series of oil paintings on theme of incongruities of war. On the Reuters editors choice Oct 7th 2008 i was very very impressed by your photo of ' An Afghan man washes himself under a broken water pump Kabul' Would you give permission for me to base a painting on the quick sketch I made of that image?, The painting will not be a reproduction. I would of course aknowledge your photograph as my source. Neville Weston Dear Ahmad Masood.
