23rd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest People
Polina and Mark
I saw these two kids, brother and sister, playing in the street of Irpin. I immediately wanted to photograph them illustrating what it is to be a kid daily living the war for 3 years now. We can’t realize the trauma these kids will have to deal with in the future. The youth of Ukraine is probably doomed to ptst for years.
