Some of the photos presented on this slideshow are fantastic IMO: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/7842671.st...

Thought others' may want to see, and you can view more of the photographers work at: http://www.philcoomes.co.uk

Mrs Baz originally came from a small town 20 miles from where the Auschwitz camp is found, we're hopefully planning to make a trip there this year if my work travels allow as she's not been back to her home town in quite some time.

Went there last year. One of the few times in my life that I've had nightmares. The German presenter must have given his presentation 100 if not a 1000 times, but still spoke with passion. Not ashamed to say it made me cry. I haven't looked at my photos yet.

Worth a visit if only to remind you how thin the line is between civilisation and madness and sadly we are all capable of crossing the line, it just requires the appropriate triggers.
