*This is a good piece of USG because it is an intruding portrait of president-elect Barack Obama and shows how accessible he is to the average person.

*This is a good piece of USG because it tells so many stories in one picture. From the sign she's holding to the march itself to the expression on her face--this photo comes alive.

*This is a good piece of USCG because it is timely and powerful. The words on the sign are very controversial and can enhance a user's curiosity.
