Too be young, happy and in love. Is there a better time? I can still remember those days! Looks like a very colorful and popular area of town. Beautiful street scene capture Saad.

Dear Saad, we meant to say that unfortunately there are still countries in the Mid East where people do not tolerate "western" people and find "us" disrespectful. (I have faced personally this problem as a European woman who lives in Kuwait.) Your photos and your way of thinking is absolutely normal. God bless.

Saad, you have misunderstood my intent. I share your views entirely, however my point and yours is that others, particularly in your country, may not.
Best regards Saad.

Dear Linda, thank you so much, appreciated.
Here is my reply to Paul...
Thank you so much dear Paul, so much appreciated for your frank and honest opinion.
I have never ever put in my mind to show this fine couple as unrespecful, this was said, I have to tell you my true intention behind the image. In my severly injured country Iraq, we have lost the tolerance of each other, religiously, ethnically, and even culturally, the people can not bear each other on the simplest different, I have tried and still trying to say through my images that harmony and tolerance is the only way of finding common ground for living together, and as a street photographer I stress this fact throughh my images, the street is our common road and rout to our daily life, it does not belong to a certain group, it is a rainbow that you can not separate a single color from the whole spectrum.
I am so sorry if I caused you or any one to think otherwise, please accept my best wishes and regards.
Yours.
Saad

Para mí, es una foto muy simbólica, Saad. No estoy muy seguro de que tu pienses lo mismo.
Muchas felicidades por tu merecido premio!
