Boris didn’t make the vaccine. Boris didn’t administer the vaccine. Boris didn’t distribute the vaccine. He didn’t heal anyone. He didn’t save anyone. He didn’t help anyone. He did nothing.

I'm a self-taught photographer from Karachi, who has addiction with the Street Photography. A simple RT won't make me famous, but it could get my work to people who should see it.
