Looking smart while throwing stones
Dado Ruvic combines timing, composition and cropping to provide a comical portrait of a stone-throwing competitor in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Dado nails the timing with the competitor’s mouth open just wide enough to reveal his two teeth, creates strong visual composition and crops just tight enough to leave in the appropriate t-shirt slogan.

Mr. Bauhaus Wang,
Thank you very much for this exceptional picture.
From all pictures seen from Sichuan earth quake diaster area, your picture caught my attention the most. Because of this focus contrast and the single tear drop, your picture brought out the pain and sadness she had sufferred thru and yet she held back and kept all these sadness inside her.
Can you provide more information about this?
When, where, how you took this picture. Are there anyway we can contact her?
B. regards,
Tony Cheung
