It's strange, but while I was taking pictures, I felt almost nothing. It was like the camera was shielding me from all the horror that was in front of me. But at home, when I was reviewing and editing the photos, the realization came to me in waves. All those people had been alive just an hour earlier. It was Palm Sunday, a religious holiday. Many people were walking from or to church, and the trolleybus in the photo was full of people. I don’t know if taking photos helps — but I know forgetting would be worse.

Slava Ukraini. Don't forget you can donate to Ukraine's war effort at https://u24.gov.ua/
A few £, $ or whatever your currency is small change when investing against tyranny, and will help the people of Ukraine fight and rebuild.
