Photo of the Year

[Sonny]

From Michael Yon's Blog live from Baghdad, Iraq:


Thanks and Praise: I photographed men and women, both Christians and Muslims, placing a cross atop the St. John’s Church in Baghdad. They had taken the cross from storage and a man washed it before carrying it up to the dome.

I think this is pretty awesome of the Abrahamic faiths.

Combining historical militaristic iconography with religious zeal, impressive. It's the Iraqi Iwo Jima.
