Please share your favorite inspiring images from the Egyptian Revolution

I know DUers shared some awesome ones, but I can't find them now.

Please share your favorite images from the last 17 days.

1. I love all the smiles and exuberance - and the chicken held high in the air!
Some guy was holding a chicken up. Somebody else was holding their puppy up. Little girl up on her (assumed) father's shoulders. Lots of jubilation, dancing, cheering, making "V" for victory signs - and no violence! Victory with no violence. That's the best part.

12. I found a photog/protester I really like - Sarah Carr (half Egyptian)
Edited on Fri Feb-11-11 02:00 PM by Waiting For Everyman
I first found her tweets @Sarahcarr and she happened to tweet a link to her Flickr account, and I saw her slideshow which was fascinating. There was just something about her shots, they make you feel like you're there on the ground.

Her blog...

And this is a stunner collection (really) from The Atlantic "In Focus", collection called "Three Weeks In Egypt".

15. You're welcome. Another collection from yesterday/today is linked below it.
Edited on Fri Feb-11-11 02:28 PM by Waiting For Everyman
Just saw them - mostly night pix of the crowd before and as the announcement of stepdown came, but such emotion captured in them. I'll bet the next group posted will be awesome.

The protesters running the pro-mubarak rock throwers back, across the bridge.

Another: the Egyptian news anchor on TV stating that she could no longer repeat the state's lies and had come to Tahrir square to join the truth seekers.

17. The Copts protecting the Muslims at prayer, and the reverse.
Humanity and faith at their best. Love the fact that they took it in turns honor to each other's faiths and protect their brothers and sisters.

23. Here's the one of Copts protecting Muslims at prayer


I'm still looking for the one of Muslims forming 'human shields' at Christmas time for the Coptic Midnight Mass.
