That pic should be on the front page of every newspaper in the world for a week and on the cover of Life.

Excellent choice.

It certainly beats the shit out of one of "the Best" pictures of Vietnam - a little girl running, crying and burning up from napalm! :mad:

I agree, that picture captures much more then just what you see.

This is the website (blogspot) for the photographer who took that photo:

Michael Yon's website

He has many other great photos and stories on the site.

I like this one, posted by TR:

Post any additional nominees soon so I can do the poll, please.

Screw the poll, we have a winner . . .
 

Casey, congrats. You win.

Your prize is a cheese steak and crab fries at Chickie & Pete's next time I'm in town.

Attachment 5345I didn't want to nominate myself, but I've got some cool pictures.

Did you notice that we already have declared a winner? :munchin

WTF is this?

A Shark-ocracy?

The unfortunate part is that Yon is selling prints of that picture for a lot of money. Its sad to see him selling out a picture that is extremely important and captures a lot of meaning. Hopefully the integrity of the photo will not be lost.

Instantly. Just wanted to post my picture is all.

Yes. :D :lifter

LOL Counselor, the depth of your pockets never fails to amaze me.
