That shot, “Police officer attacked by demonstrators as clashes ensue during an anti-austerity march in London.”, is definitely one of my favourite pictures of 2011. Inasmuch as I feel sorry for the policeman’s gentleman parts and his subsequent pain, his reaction is something all us men can relate to. Happy new year Jules.
