Photos of the Millennium

         This photograph was taken in 2004 during the Orange Revolution. It features a Ukrainian woman putting carnations into the shields of police officers. This photograph is very beautiful to me. It shows that even through all of the chaos that may be going on humans have not lost their humanity. This is not the first time I have seen something like this. I believe a group of individuals in within the United States placed carnations in the shields of policemen at an anti-riot. It is almost like a peace offering, "we are not here to harm you, we hope you are not here to harm us".
