Cette semaine nous avons assisté à la dernière bataille du Colonel Muammar el-Qadaffi dans la ville de Surt. Notre tournée mondiale en images nous emmène ensuite au Pakistan, où des hommes armés ont transformé un convoi de camions de carburant de l’OTAN en un flamboyante attraction, et en Afghanistan, où nous visitons les avant-postes éloignés et désespérés des troupes de l’OTAN à Kandahar. A New York, les manifestants à Wall Street résistent encore, quant aux femmes des magazines, elles sont toujours remarquables quoique complétement différentes de la semaine dernière.

”The battle for Surt, the tribal stronghold of former Libyan leader Muammar el-Qaddafi, raged throughout the week. Photographer Ahmad Al-Rubaye put himself in front of the front lines to get this shot of Libyan National Transition Council fighters. At last the city fell to the Transition Council army, marking the end of one era in Libya, and the beginning of another.” Photo by Ahmad Al-Rubaye/AFP/Getty Images, “Framework,” Los Angeles Times

Photographer Donovan Wylie's new book, Outposts: Kandahar Province, focuses on a number of small military bases dotting the Afghan landscape after years of fighting. The forts appear in the photos as ancient temples in a timeless land, a place where war comes, goes, and comes again. The outposts, notes Time's photo blog, are 'tiny bases erected in some of the least hospitable terrain to ever see combat. The outposts are places of refuge; the troops sleep, fight and sometimes live behind their makeshift walls'.u201d Photos by Donovan Wylie, u201cLightbox,u201d Time

u201dThe 'Occupy Wall Street' protests have now gone global, much to the apparent distaste of this businessman in London, where 'Occupy the London Stock Exchange' demonstrators have set up camp. The New York Times recently noted that in private many bankers speak disdainfully of the protesters: 'Their different worldview speaks volumes about the wide chasms that have opened over who is to blame for the continuing economic malaise and what is best for the country', said the newspaper. That chasm is fully on view in this photo.u201d Photo by Matt Dunham/AP, u201cLens,u201d New York Times

u201dPhotographing other photographers can be a tricky proposition, especially if the photographer is also a poet, musician, writer, artist, and cultural icon.

u201d'Reading Joan Didion on any subject is like tiptoeing across a just-frozen pond filled with beautiful sharks. You look down and pray the ice will hold. Meeting her is not a vastly different experience', writes Boris Kachka in this week's New York magazine. Didion's latest book, Blue Nights, tells the story of her relationship with her troubled daughter, who died in 2005. Didion is known for scalpel-sharp sentences that isolate ideas and emotions with cold precision. Here, photographer Brigitte Lacombe isolates the writer against white seamless.u201d Photo by Brigitte Lacombe, New York

u201dIn the space of two years, says W magazine, hip-hop star Nicki Minaj has 'made the leap from little known Lil Wayne protégée to object of national obsession'. For the magazine's November issue, Minaj makes the leap into court of Louis XV of France. In these images, artist Francesco Vezzoli transforms Minaj into Jeanne Antoinette Poisson, Marquise de Pompadour (left) and Jeanne Becu, Comtesse du Barry (right), among other figures.u201d Photos by Francesco Vezzoli, W
