2009 overzicht in grote foto´s!

Nog 4 dagen en dan knallen we weer een nieuw jaar in! 2009 was een bewogen jaar en naar mijn gevoel, echt een deprimerend jaar… Of komt dat na het zien van de foto´s op The Big Picture waar vooral erge gebeurtenissen in naar voren komen. In een serie van drie delen wordt het jaar 2009 in beeld gebracht met grote foto´s. Van de aanslag op de Koningin tot het conflict in de Gazastrook.
