Choeung Ek

    5000 skulls and bones, stacked nicely, and yet somehow its not horrific, just, calm - a testimony to the care the people of Cambodia have taken to not exploit or glorify their terrible past.

      Knowing what has happened to these poor people makes it horrific. I never thought skulls were horrific, or creepy. Black and white works great here.
