This photograph is called Loyalist Militiaman and was taken by Robert Capa. The image is about a solider collapsing after being shot in the head with the weapon slipping out his hand. It was taken on September 5 1936. Robert was famous for taking war photos and was also a photojournalist.  Robert also got an award at the World Press Photo Award for General News.

My critique is that I don't like how the man was shot because it make you feel sad. If I used this image to inspire my friends, I wouldn't use a weapon but instead there would be someone holding on to the person so they wouldn't be falling but catching. Even though the image is someone getting shot I wanted to make a positive thing.
