The woman is looking up towards the sky from where, presumably, death had stricken "her son".This pic is still on Reuters website you can see this pic <a href="http://www.reuters.com/news/pictures/slideshow?collectionId=2126&galleryName=All%20Collections#a=9" target="_blank">here</a><img src="http://byzantinesacredart.com/blog/images/world/fooling-the-world3.gif" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />But for the purposes of this photo the body of the "son" has been obviously moved quite a bit away from the curb. This was clearly not done in order to cover up the naked parts of the dead man's body, nor to allow some measure of dignity to the dead. Was it done for the light? (One should challenge Reuters to find a mother -- any mother -- who would allow the body of her child to be dragged through dirt half naked like this, while she is taking instructions from a photographer where to stand, where to look and what to do next)</blockquote>
