What’s in a picture?

A picture’s worth a thou­sand words. Behind gifted eyes, is a vision, a gen­tle whis­per from the heart, an artist’s soul. Like the deaf­en­ing silence in a vibrant dream,

…every pic­ture tells a story with a dif­fer­ent point of view.

New York Times:

Covering the war in east­ern Libya and Misurata in the west has proved to be espe­cially treach­er­ous for jour­nal­ists, who have been sub­jected to airstrikes, and artillery, rocket, rifle and machine-gun fire, and they have faced the risk of arrest, beat­ings and deten­tion from the pro-Qaddafi forces.

Two other jour­nal­ists were killed last month in the Libyan con­flict, accord­ing to the Committee to Protect Journalists: Mohammed al-Nabbous, the founder of the online Libya Alhurra TV, who was shot as he was stream­ing audio reports of the fight­ing in Benghazi; and Ali Hassan al-Jaber, a cam­era­man with Al Jazeera who was shot when his crew was ambushed near Benghazi.

Tim Hetherington, Chris Hondros, Mohammed al-Nabbous, Ali Hassan al-Jaber: May you all rest in peace.
