This is probably the only thing that ALMOST got me to tear up in this thread. As I was looking through the photos the most obscene amount of negativity went through my head so I just closed it and now I'm watching proleague lol.

I was there at the time and it an amazing experience. Even as a Brit living in British occupied Germany it was a momentous experience. I still have a chunk of wall in my attic!

Different bacteria live in the different temperatures of the water. The outer of the geyser is red/yellow meaning the water is cooler and the bacteria there can't live in the hotter water where the blue/green bacteria are.
I have many many pictures from the disaster in Japan, but this one stands out to me.

Have a crappy picture of me standing in the front of the lake, but it doesnt do is justice at all.. so, where is "there" ? this picture is stunning pretty sure its lake louise, Alberta, Canada . Yeah, i go there almost every year. Spectacular scenery. There is a huge hotel right behind the lake, its a great area to visit.

I'm sure this one has been posted... Her family was mistakenly killed while she was with her brother because her parents failed to stop at a roadblock. Awful:

This one perfectly captures the essence of the INSANE Liberian fighters:

To me this one captures the phrase, "Never give up". He fought all the way down to his bare 9mm, whilst mortally riddled with bullets:

This one reminds me of genuine happiness. It's a self-taken photograph of a Black Macaque - yes, he took his own self portrait! Who says animals can't use cameras:

I think of hate directed against a general group as one of the worst things seen in history.
I agree with your comment, but I think if you remove the "down with america" the flag is really clever and profound.
