The Big Picture: A harrowing, historic week in Egypt

The Boston Globe's Big Picture series is amazing. 

In February of this year the Big Picture a ran a piece on the Egyptian Protests titled, A harrowing, historic week in Egypt .  The pictures are all high resolution and each has a clear caption describing what we are viewing. 

As a collection the pictures can give a person a taste of what it was like "on the ground" in Tahrir square and throughout Egypt.

Here is a sample:
