In my continuous research of everything is happening in the world related to water, I check pictures from the news agencies many times a day, so, from now on, I'll post every monday (well, don't take this periodicity too seriously...) a pictorial journey through what has happened in our world in the last week. Through the eyes of excellent photographers and with the common thread of water(or its lack). This is the first issue, hope you like it, if so say thanks to REUTERS and to the credited photographers.
Enjoy.
