I know there are alot of great Middle East photos on the internet, but i figured this was more worthy of posting since they were all taken in the past 4 weeks. Really captivating photos... Everyone should check them out. There's 43 in total.

On a more positive note, i thought this one of the dog was really interesting.

Treo, an eight-year-old black Labrador from the Military Working Dogs, was presented with Britain's Dickin medal, awarded for bravery and commitment in wartime, the highest military honor an animal can expect at the Imperial War Museum in London on Wednesday, Feb. 24, 2010. Treo was decorated for his work sniffing out explosives in Afghanistan.

This one is really impressive. The one with whatever body part that is wrapped up in a blanket is pretty gnarly, yous can go find that one for yourselves.

This ones is awesome too. I'm thinking he should have used a slower shutter to blur the blades on the helicopter, maybe would have given it a little more sense of motion. He was probably worried about getting shot though so props for getting it the way it is.
