I haven't been posting the news photos from the paper that never make the web due to time factors, readers; however, this one deserves a post and description.
Caption: Offerings For the Dead.... A relative of earthquake victims in devastated Beichuan County in Sichuan Province, China, mourned yesterday at the ruins of a family home. The earthquake and landslides killed tens of thousands of residents on May 12, 2008. Survivors made offerings ahead of a traditional festival that honors the dead.
Description: Amidst the rubble (still) of the home and block, a young woman has placed two infant dolls. She has her hands clasped to her cheeks as she leaves the site.
Yes, the photo brought a tear to this jaded old man's eye.
