The original photo (top left) was taken at the Fifteenth Leningrad Regional Party Conference in 1924 or 1925. It shows Nikolai Antipov (left), Joseph Stalin, Sergei Kirov (right), and Nikolai Shvernik (far right). Antiopov, who rose to become Deputy Chairman of the Council of People's Commissars, was the first to fall out of Stalin’s favor. Shvernik vanished next. Readers can see he was airbrushed out of the photo, but Shvernik was lucky. He is the only person in the original photo to survive Stalin, whose enemies often had a penchant for dying unexpectedly.

A photograph of the black bear which killed Darsh Patel on Sept. 21 in a wooded area of West Milford was recovered from the victim's phone, authorities say. The picture was taken from approximately 100 feet - but the bear kept approaching the group of hikers, who split up and fled just shortly before Patel was killed, authorities say. The cell phone was later found with a puncture mark from the animal's fangs, authorities added.

The 17-year-old went missing on the morning of February 27, when he told family members that he planned to hike Haiku Stairs, also known as the "Stairway to Heaven." The photo was one of a few photos the teen had texted to family members during his hike, and after extensively studying the pictures they noticed a man in one of them.
