FACE TO FACE PHOTO DESCRIPTION

In this photo we can see a group of soldiers they're sticking a flag.
U.S. Marines of the 28th Regiment, 5th Division, raise the <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2015/02/22/world/cnnphotos-iwo-jima/" target="_blank">American flag atop Mount Suribachi, Iwo Jima,</a> on February 23, 1945. Only 660 miles from Tokyo, the Pacific island became the site of one of the bloodiest, most infamous battles of World War II. The photo won the Pulitzer Prize in 1945. According to  former executive newsphoto editor at The Associated Press <a href="http://www.blackdogandleventhal.com/moments/" target="_blank">Hal Buell, author of "Moments," a book on Pulitzer Prize-winning images</a>, photographer Joe Rosenthal used a 4x5 Speed Graphic camera loaded with an Agfa 4x5 film pack (12 shots in a single holder). The lens was 127mm. He exposed f16 at 1/400th. B/W film. ASA is unknown. He made three frames on top of Suribachi: the flag raising, a "gung ho" picture and a photo of Marines using a cable or rope to fasten the staff against the wind.In the background we can see a little hill
In front of the little hill we can see a little mountain of trash and on the trash we can see the group of soldiers.
At the top of the photo we can see the flag. 
This photo is in black and white, and the adjectives I would use to describe it would be: dramatic, moving and powerfull
I choose this picture because this photo makes me feel small, in other words that is this picture represents a challenge of a contry.
