1. I like how the baby is sitting on the ground just watching the rummage on the ground like he can't do anything about it.2. The baby's mother died in a bombing and and was laying dead on the tracks nearby. Wong quickly took the picture and helped bring the baby to safety.
3. The photo was viewed by over 136 million people, this picture was part of the start of world war 2.
4. in the second photo, you can see the child's father and the dead mother on the tracks.

#2 - V-J in Times Square
1. I picked this image because it is very famous and I figured I should learn more about it. It is super romantic and adorable.
2. Eisenstaedt was on a mission "to find and capture a storytelling moment," being one of LIFE magazine's first photographers and saw a soldier grab a nurse in the middle of the street and kiss her.
3. LIFE magazine put together a collage of all the different cities where the soldiers kissed different girls.
4. the second photo I picked by Eisenstaedt was a photo of Marilyn Monroe in front of a fence I'm guessing; I picked it because she is very beautiful and her stare is mesmerizing.

#3 - Famine in Somalia
1. This photo hurt my heart to look at it. These are real people - people who could have grown up and became these amazing creatures, but they are simply limited by the lack of food in their country.
2. Nachtwey couldn't get the assignment, so he went on his own. He brought back the pictures and showed them to Time magazine, they were haunted and impressed.
3. The photo is of a woman waiting to be wheeled to a feeding center. She is obviously too weak to walk.
4. The second photo is a very skinny, sick boy getting an IV I'm guessing.

#4 - Alan Kurdi
1. I picked this image because the story behind it is super emotional. The boy who is dead laying on the beach is what caught my eye.
2. The boy plus his mother and younger brother were on their way to make a 3 mile journey in an inflatable boat to get out of the War in Syria. They left off of the coast of Turkey and headed for the Greek island Kos.
3. The war by the time the photographer had taken the photo, 220,000 people had been killed.

#5 - 1. I picked this image because I think it is beautiful. Earth is such an interesting planet.
2. It was on December 24, 1968, exactly 75 hours, 48 minutes and 41 seconds after the Apollo 8 spacecraft lifted off from Cape Canaveral en route to becoming the first manned mission to orbit the moon.
3. It was the first photo of the earth.
4. The second photo is another photo of earth.
