There are [3] photos and [5] stories tagged with "genocide".

This pictures was taken in Auschwitz-Birkenau. This place was so incredibly vast, that you got a bit dizzy to think that so many people were murdered on the grounds. The tracks are so incredibly symbolic. The tracks gave the Nazi's access to murder so many innocent people. It led them to a road to nowhere.

Photography-wise, I like this photo because o fthe depth of field. The focus is mostly on the tracks and you don't really know where thew tracks go. The shadows in the tracks are dark which represents the unknown. I love that the sky is gray for it really sets the mood for the photo and makes it very grim. by: nickp Views[757]

This photo will always hold a place in my heart. It was taken down a hallway in the Auschwitz Concentration Camp. They had several photos of some of the people killed during the genocide. The hallway was completely silent. The only thing you could hear were the sounds of teardrops hitting the floor. by: nickp Views[493]

Discovering Extremes in Cambodia

CAMBODIA | Wed, 8 Sep 2010 | By mdcamps | Views [360]

Cambodia was a mix of stunning beauty, a gruesome past, horrible poverty, beggars, trash and vast affluent kingdoms. I only spent four days in the country, spread out between the cities of Phnom Penh and Siem Reap. Phnom Penh is home to S-21 (Tuol ... Read more >

CAMBODIA | Sat, 19 Apr 2008 | By rosibud | Views [1142]

It’s difficult to put into words what we saw the other day. It’s difficult in anyway to understand what the Cambodian people have been through. Actually I find it impossible to grasp. In 1975, after 5 years of civil war, The Khmer ... Read more >
