Our picks of the week's best pictures



Pedestrians observe an outline of a body on a sidewalk in Bogota, Colombia. Fundacion Pais Libre, an anti-kidnapping civic group, sought to bring attention to Colombia's world-record kidnapping rate by drawing outlines representing bodies of slain kidnap victims near malls and other prominent spots in the capital. Colombia has an average of 3,000 kidnappings per year, by far the world's highest. Leftist rebels are responsible for most of the abductions, which are carried out for ransom or to apply political pressure. (Wednesday, Dec. 5, 2001)
