10 Things to See: A week of top AP photos

Anti-gay marriage demonstrators face riot police (not seen) while teargas canisters smoke during clashes in Paris, France, Sunday May 26, 2013. Tens of thousands of people protested against France's new gay marriage law in central Paris on Sunday. The law came into force over a week ago, but organizers decided to go ahead with the long-planned demonstration to show their continued opposition as well as their frustration with President Francois Hollande, who had made legalizing gay marriage one of his keynote campaign pledges in last year's election.(AP Photo/Thibault Camus)

An elderly Indian widow performs morning rituals at the non-governmental organization Sulabh International in Varanasi, India, Monday, May 27, 2013. In India, being a widow remains one of the worst stigmas. When her husband dies, the widow often becomes a pariah, excluded from family gatherings for fear the mere fall of her shadow will bring bad luck and tragedy. In the North, many journey to the holy cities of Vrindavan and Varanasi, where they beg, and are paid a pittance to recite prayers in the temple as they wait for the end. The NGO Sulabh International takes care of the welfare, protection, maintenance and education of widows so that their living conditions improve. (AP Photo/Rajesh Kumar Singh)
