“This photograph of a Georgian soldier released during a prisoner exchange with the South Ossetians arrived at Ghudushauri hospital and was reunited with his loved ones. It was taken amidst a point of uncertainly shortly after the conflict started, and the release of the prisoners during that conflict gave the Georgians a sense of hope in a time when most Georgians thought the conflict would grow. I think this photograph conveys a struggle separated by two clearly defined sides and shows the viewer a look of desperation and apprehension in the eyes of this Georgian soldier.”
