Sunday 7

Name the seven most memorable news photographs (by number) from the list of 50 linked [here].

1. 2--Still as shocking now as it was the day I saw it in the newspaper. Absolutely terrifying.
2. 5--This is not the image that is burned into my memory, but it's the closest one of that horrible day.
3. 8--She and her sisters are why we're fighting in Afghanistan. I try to remember that.
4. 20--Amazing, unreal, beautiful. There was some of that this decade.
5. 36--This one brings so many questions to my mind, and again the look of terror on this little guy's face is heartbreaking.
6. 40--About freakin' time!
7. 42--So many pictures of refugees include mothers and children. I don't remember too many fathers and children. Certainly not a father so fiercely determined.

I automatically excluded anything with Bush, anything inane (sports, Paris Hilton--wtf??--etc.), and couldn't bring myself to link to any of the blocked ones, although I looked at them all. I will be having nightmares about #33, and some of the others I didn't choose as well.
