Out of the 45, number 5 is my favourite. Amazing photo.

I couldn't help but laugh when i saw number 7 though.

Great photos.

But why do organisations publicise 'best of 2011' when there are still 3 weeks plus of the year to run

 

[Ash187]

LOL!

also just to add, most of the pictures are just showing disasters and violations of human rights!
is it just me or are there more natural disasters occurring nowadays? well i guess its just another reason for the tree huggers to complain about global warming!

[warren_S5]

Brilliant thread mate, such great photos

 

[FranA3]

this photo i posted on Facebook a while ago but it is one really powerful photo i think it goes to show the dedication of one woman who's husband was killed while serving in the army , she sleeps with her husband one more time before he is buried while a army officer stands watches over her , now that is true dedication for you

Reminds me of this, different but no less poignant:

Fantastic thread Scott. No 5 and no 20 are ones that stand out most for me.
