During the celebration of the victory of World War II, a TIME magazine photographer captured this moment between a nurse and a sailor. I think that it does a great job translating the mood of this moment in time. Though none of us were there first hand, the image of two happy people kissing is the literal imagery of happiness and celebration. Outside of the center of the image, people are also just smiling ear to ear. Some are looking at the couple, and you can see the joy in their faces. I think that this image just screams joy, and couldn't be a better representation of what people were feeling on that day. Japan had surrendered, and the war was over.
