    Colman Doyle’s 1973 photo of a woman IRA volunteer in Belfast became one of most iconic shots of the Troubles: https://www.rte.ie/brainstorm/2020/0616/1147804-troubles-northern-ireland-colman-doyle-photo-woman-ira-belfast-1973/

        Belfast was an awfully precarious location when this was taken in 1987.

        It looks just as absurd as the situation was. Here’s a picture by Philip Jones Griffiths:
