powerful and fully statured work!

My only lament is that this essay was only 25 images….i felt like i was just getting started, and I mean that in the most complimentary, needful way. this is powerful narrative documentary at its finest and even its its seemingly truncated form, the movement we experience from image #1 to image #25 is a powerful visual and visceral experience. The level of journalism so high, that I want even more and I want even more of the stories of the people (the child, the blind man, the Wellesian man in the flashlight shadow, the nurse, all those singular portraits, i want to know even more, see more.And I hope Max too can explore all those missing women, who become in many ways the voice here for me because of their absence…

congratulations Max and congratulations to Burn for sharing.

will wait eagerly, as Max’s work on Pakistan continues….

Stay safe.

Time moves on and this story, over time, may prove to be an unfolding of important history and an addition to the visual documentation of the region.

Mike.

I respond best to those that look like Caravaggio’s Deposition of Christ as filtered through Picasso’s Guernica. Hard compositionally throughout the frame; close-up; tight.

Emotional, passionate, angry and enlightening. Bravo!

Don’t know about still another photo story on Pakistan, though. Pakistan certainly serves as a warning to the U.S. of what happens when wealth is concentrated at the top. A picture of our future (or perhaps present)?

Excellent and brave photography here. The subject matter is complex and mull-layered. Here we have a country able to feed itself but which, instead, has widespread poverty and is armed with nuclear weaponry. Add the affects of Taliban dominance in the north with continuing drone strikes and you have a volatile mix. This essay gives more than a glimpse of the situation in Pakistan. I would like to see more of the “wealth more and more concentrated in the hands of a few” but this is by no means a criticism and I look forward to seeing more from Massimo in the future. Photograph 16 shows the importance of captions. Look at the photograph and you probably think “Taliban”. Only when you read the caption do you get a more complete understanding.
Congratulations and thank you, Massimo.

Mike.
