I continue to get blown away when I see really romantic images of really awful events. Tim Hetherington has a lot of photographs of really heavy and horrific scenes where he's not too shy about shooting blood, turmoil and strife, however his photographs of Indonesia after the tsunami are a tad too beautiful for me. Check out his work here and here. I do however really enjoy some of the portraits he's made in Angola and Sierra Leone though they are a bit more heavy. I enjoy the story and weight of them.

Photographs pulled off of Panos.co.uk (link above).
Indonesia, Banda Aceh, Northern Sumatra.

da miedo ver esas fotos, son la expresion acabada del desastre
Y,puede que lo que mas impresiona es la belleza de las mismas
¿ hay entonces belleza en el dolor?
