Not sure who took this pic but it was taken during the fall of Berlin, the raising of the CCCP flag marked the start of the Cold War. I like the history behind it and the juxtoposition of the flag against the rest of the image.

he won the pulitzer for that one too.

"The night before the burial of her husband's body, Katherine Cathey refused to leave the casket, asking to sleep next to his body for the last time. Before she fell asleep, she opened her laptop computer and played songs that reminded her of JIM."
