This isn’t my favorite or my best shot but it’s the one that better captures the spirit of the last year in my country.
2011 was a very difficult year for Greece and its people, but I’m pretty sure you’ve already heard about that.
This photo depicts the hand of a man performing the greek gesture moutza* during the Indignant Citizens Movement. This way the man “pays his respects” to the greek parliament and the politicians for their “excellent work and inspiring attitude”.
*moutza: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moutza

Very good friend of mine. Until it falls within parliaments and take them kicking nothing to do. Commitment and struggle. There are too many games to entertain the youngsters. iloveyumariaDD))
