I can't help it; I get goose bumps seeing the great still photo's
coming
out of Iraq.
Got a OM-2n OM-4Ti that would love to be there.

The photographs each day in the LA Times have been awesome. Much more
powerful than the stream of video from CNN. There are some amazingly
talented young photographers over there.
Even better are the non-US sources. Most of the US media photos are
coming from embedded reporters, and are rather one-sided. If you think
the war photos you've been seeing are "beautiful" or "glorious," you
should check out al-jazera's web site for a different point-of-view.
Now I suggest we take the moderators advice, and recognize that there
ARE different points of view, and we risk turning this into a
flame-fest if we continue.

I was not making a political statement for you to object to. Did you
see one? Were you being sarcastic? I was just commenting on the quality
of the photos. Sorry you could not take it for what it was.
