The Game
It was a cold day, there wasn't much sun shining. AAS was hosting two tough days of football tournaments. The begining of the last football match was about to start. On one field the Anglo American School of Moscow (AASM) against the Anglo American School of St. Petersburg (AASS), and on the other the Kiev International School (KIS) against Hinkston. Boys aged from 14 to 18 were competeing for one thing, to become champion. The goals were empty, and the refs were talking to eachother. It was a tense moment. The two teams were having a group talk, both about the same topic, winning. Then it was time, the two teams walked on to the field an found their postions ready to start. Once the ref blew the whistle, the game begun. Immideatly, the energy level rose way up. Like panthers the players chased the ball down the field until it was theirs.

The Kiss



This photograph was taken on August 14, 1945. The photographer of this picture is Alfred Aisenstaedt, a German-American photographer. He was taking pictures of unexpected events during that day, when he saw this. This picture is of a sailor who was so happy the war was over, he kissed a girl he never knew before. Also, Alfred has taken many pictures, and of important people as well, and has asked to take many pictures.

The Afghan Girl by Steve Mccurry

 
I think that this picture describes the lives of the refugees, not only in that camp but also around the world. The holes in the shawl and the expression in the girls face describes a lot. Although, what is most famous about this picture is the color of the girls eyes. This picture has become very popular, because most people haven't heard of Afghanistan and through this picture, people have become curious about the country.
