Special photos of the day.

here is the link to some very special photos, some of which I describe below.
No. 10 (shown) is my first choice. It is a perfect pose, perfect position, perfect features and costume colour and design perfect, set in the perfect foil of the white ice and demonstrating the sharp blades of the dancers' craft.
Curled together in each others arms and the facial expressions take this well and truly beyond mere sport and the limbs of the female skater are exquisitely shaped and toned and the photographer has used his craft strategically to capture the perfect pose. What more can I say?
no 2 for its deep blue background and the balanced stars and stripes around the central image of Obama, the yanks certainly know how to "stage" things.
# 3 for the irony of the Secret service agents grouped together and identified by their occupation. Such shots where the figures are rendered small are often captivating. The irony of the situation is not lost in this photo.
# 5 so serious, so black and white and so funny.
# 9 the Tibetan nun, in her very simplicity and identifiable robes expresses how the majority feel towards such gross injustice.
# 11 because it's a pup and its mum and I love them and and and........
# 18 the irony and colour and a perfect foil in the sky for this bizarre costume does it for me
#24 the juxtaposition of two flags and the silhouetted figure makes makes this an amazing photograph supporting Israel from Nigeria when so many condemn.
There are other good photos there, but see them for yourself.
