RitaLeistnerPub1.jpg
A photograph by Rita Leistner of a woman in Iraq.

At UW's Odegaard Library.

This photograph is part of the exhibition Unembedded, with 60 images by four independent photojournalists in Iraq. Oddly, I feel like I've posted this before, but when I search for it nothing comes up. Is it just that I've seen this type of picture so many times? Do you have this same feeling? Is it still hard to look at?

(Also, I realize it's dark out in Seattle and this is a dark photograph. I'll try to dig up something nice for you to look at.)

It looks kind of like the Kids series that Jill Greenberg did.
