17 Powerful Photos That Induce a Rush of Emotions
Sometimes, it seems that we’ve seen everything and it’s almost impossible to impress us or make us cry. But then we see photos that truly move us and we can’t help but think about them for a long time. The paws of a dog that has been abused, a student that died but still “showed up” to his graduation, and the look of people who don’t realize they’ll live together for half a century are all captured in photos that make us feel an instant rush of emotions.
