OriginalThích Quảng Đức's self-immolation during the Buddhist crisis in Vietnam.
Reason
Decent quality. A similar photo won 1963 World Press Photo of the year. Malcolm Browne went on to win the Pulitzer Prize the next year. Provides significant encylopedic value by illustrating Thích Quảng Đức's protest that resulted in his death, and compels the reader to learn more.
