I was thinking ~exactly~ the same thing, Christian. The only two photos that didn't have to do with death, dispare, suffering and gloom had to do with the Iraqui elections, and even then, one of those was of a loser in the elections. The one with the Muslim woman, all dressed in black, holding a ballot is somewhat inspiring and uplifting (and I think she may even be smiling), but that's the only one of the bunch. Depressing bunch of photos. I mean I know it's PJ stuff, but surely they could have found some inspirational and joyful photos to publish. cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
