Images that changed the world

[Dave McEwan Hill]

A very moving collection of some of the most famous photographs ever taken. There are pictures among from Sudan, Darfur and Biafra. They mostly remind us how wicked the human race can be when we hate.

Pretty powerful stuff, Dave. Thanks for reminding us of significance of history -- and cameras!

Very powerful and moving stuff for anyone with a heart....there are a few more I saw not too long ago covering Palestine, lebanon, the flooded areas of Bangladesh, the tamil areas of Sri Lanka.... the world is seriously sick and unfortunately man, filled with greed and lust, n in ultimate thirst for power and supremacy, continues to make it worse... why? Is it an inherent nature? why does nationalism, tribalism, race or religious affiliation blind us?

while most of those pictures are related to the effects of war, sadly, some of such worrying situations happen even in countries not fighting any war.... Dave thank you for sharing. Thank you for reminding us of how cruel man is to his fellow man, a feat unrivalled in nature, and thank you for reminding us that the greatest good one can ever do is to lift a burden off the shoulders of another...

Thank you...
