Oh dear, I had no idea about the New York kiss! I also had to correct the caption for the Russian soldier with Himmler, initially it said the prisoner was Horace Greasley, but then I Googled him and saw he claimed it was him in the photo, when it never was. Also, the guys eating lunch high up in the air, was staged unfortunately, but it's still a great photo.
I'll try and get some more uplifting ones, Observer!
That's actually why I posted the New York kiss...ironic.
The stories behind the pictures are as interesting as the pictures themselves. Kevin Carter got a lot of flack for not helping the starving child with the vulture, and some say it played a role in his suicide, and the photographer of the Hector Pieterson shot says it ruined his life.
