Prize-Winning Wedding Photo of Wounded Marine
World Press Photo ^ | 2/10/07 | Nina Berman

Posted on 02/09/2007 9:29:24 PM PST by Zeroisanumber

At the request of the artist, I haven't copied the photo in question to this thread. It's viewable here.

The photo took first prize in the portrait category of the World Press Photo awards. It is such a beautiful example of love, determination, and strength mixed with sadness and wistfulness that I was very moved the first time that I looked at it.

I hope that others on the board will find this photo as engaging and moving as I did.

That's a big guy.

Probably more bandages or a brace of some sort under his uniform.

I saw an interview with them on FoxNews a few weeks ago, but I did not know that the wedding had already taken place.

May they have a long and loving life together.
