- Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.
- Early serious contender for photo of the year. Sorry you're not the author, just the hero in this photo 👍Jan 17, 2026 14:59
