This picture is of three sisters, Isra 8 years old, Diana 10 years old, and Malak 5 years old. They live in the village Fandakomia in Palestine. They came to me to take their pic. I was in a visit to my family in the village. We went to the roof and I saw this plastic barrel that was there to dry off after my mom washed it. The girls wrre so happy in their unusual setting.

I felt this pic is special because it symbolizes the closeness of the sisters. Somehow the tightness of the barrel makes them one. It is cool, weird and innocent.

My name is Thameen Darby.

I hope you will like it too.

  • Oppose interesting, but what article does the photo illustrate? :)--K.C. Tang 13:49, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

      • It needs to illustrate an article to become a featured pic. enochlau (talk) 15:14, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
        • One of the criterion for a featured picture is that it illustrates a particular topic and is used in one or more articles. Another is that the picture should not be personal - not a portrait, or a photo of a specific person unless it is for an article about that person. And someone in the photo should almost never be looking into the camera, for FP. OpposeVanderdeckenξφ 16:25, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
