Wow, some very powerful images in there. Especially the ones of the war. I can't get over this one. It seems so carefully composed and perfectly lit, yet it's juxtaposed with these three figures that at first glance might look almost peaceful, but that unquestionably evoke feelings of the tragedy of the time period.
A good example where the slight bit of context that the caption gives it is extremely important.
