Very sad day for people of Poland!

Today there was a memorial service held for plane crash victims in Warsaw. Exactly one week ago 96 top officials, including the president and firs lady, died in a plane crash near Smolensk, Russia.

I was walking in the center of Warsaw observing how approximately 100,000 of Poles and other nationalities gathered in the city center to attend the memorial. I saw candles, tears and sadness all over. I have never seen people deepened in such sorrow. Young and old, rich and poor, big city dwellers and folks from the country, side by side, united in grief and above any divisions. One nation, indivisible...

I walked in the quiet crowd and observed history in the making. I took couple of shots...but I have to admit it wasn’t easy. The crowd was insane and I felt very uneasy pointing my camera at praying and saddened people...Take a look and say a preyer.
