This image will always give me chills. What about you? It’s what we call an iconic image. An iconic image often has global or political implications. They affect our emotions because we immediately recognize something powerful or historic in the image. Think of pictures like those marking a day in history, worldwide events, or famous people. Iconic photos don’t have to be of recognizable subjects, though. There are iconic wedding photos, event shots, and even family portraits. What makes it iconic is that it evokes powerful feelings from its intended audience. Photographers are always hoping to capture something iconic. We keep our heads on a swivel so that we are constantly aware of our surroundings, the people and other subjects, the mood, the lighting, and all the other elements that contribute to our photos. We are constantly calculating and watching for everything to align perfectly in our lens. This is generally called “composition.” The way we compose a photo has to become instinctive for a photographer. We can only learn to do it through time and experience, and of course, a lot of trial and error. We notice where things will be in the frame. We can tell the difference between two nearly identical facial expressions. We see how a background will impact the foreground. And we have an eye on more details at once than anyone can imagine. When we nail it, it’s amazing. You can tell you’re looking at an iconic photo if you just can’t pull your eyes away from it, or if you feel an emotional reaction to it. Every once in a while, this type of photo happens spontaneously. But most of the time, it happens because a hard-working photographer applied their years of experience to make it work. What’s your most iconic photo?
Today, we remember the tragic events that happened on 9/11. We pause to honor all the victims, their families, and all those who serve and have sacrificed in the line of duty. ❤️ #NeverForget

Working with SMB business leaders to address customer impacting operational Issues| MBA, Customer Lifecycle Operations Expert
Thank you for continuing to state the truth Congressman Ritchie Torres. We are clearly living in a "Bizarro" world where evil is respected as "good", in such a world we need the overwhelming voices of RIGHT and TRUTH to continue shining through. There also needs to be a groundswell of STRONG voices of ANGER focused at the Biden-Harris Administration, ( specifically at Biden, Harris, and Blinken), who seem to have clearly forgotten which country they live in, who is that country's closest ally, and which country's government is committed to the destruction of said ally AND the US. Specifically Biden, Harris, and Blinken MUST be put ON THE SPOT for specifically telling Israel NOT to attack Iran's oil refineries, ( which drive its ability to develop its main source of income - ( petroleum), and/or nuclear weapons development facilities, ). Iran needs to be able to develop and ship petroleum products to China and Russia to fund its nuclear weapons development program, its missile development program, and ALL of its terrorist proxies that are working 24/7 to destroy the State of Israel and its people. Who are are Biden, Harris, and Blinken working for? Who ius actually running US foreign policy now? Why would the US government NOT want to STOP Iran from having the ability to fund terror, and threaten the entire world with multiple nuclear weapons? THIS MAKES NO SENSE unless the Harris Biden team is actually working for people who could care less about the national security of Israel and the US. They should be required to explain these positions. It is not enough to stand behind the "we want to deter all out escalation" line. BULLIES ARE NEVER deterred by WEAKNESS, and/or capitulation! THIS ONLY MAKES SENSE
Nerdeen Kiswani, the leader of Within Our Lifetime (WOL), admires the mastermind of October 7th, affectionately calling him “Sweet Sinwar.” There is nothing “sweet” about the mass murder of 1200 Jews. Nothing “sweet” about the abduction of aging Holocaust and Farhud survivors. Nothing sweet about the kidnapping of babies and children. Those who see sweetness in the savagery of 10/7 are revealing themselves to be savages. The mainstream media should stop mainstreaming these extremes as “pro-Palestinian.”

We always knew one day we’d hear Noah’s name screamed from the crowds, what we didn’t know is that this tragedy would be the reason. He was gonna be great, he had so much to offer and live for, his life meant so much…We can’t grieve until he gets justice. We won’t stop fighting until justice is served…and even then, no amount of justice will give him back to us but atleast he can rest knowing we didn’t give up and fought for him until the end. #Forever8 #JusticeForNoahand you can go to WTOC for updates, so please share

Modern slavery happens everywhere. It’s estimated that there are an estimated 41,000 victims of modern slavery in Australia on any given day. Only 300 victims are ever identified each year… meaning the vast majority of victims never receive help or justice. (https://lnkd.in/gKdF39y8) Read more about the facts of modern slavery in our latest blog post here https://lnkd.in/gB_EEsAf
