Here's your look at highlights from the weekly AP photo report, a gallery featuring a mix of front-page photography, the odd image you might have missed and lasting moments our editors think you should see.

This week's collection includes smoke and flames rising from an airstrike by the U.S.- led coalition in Kobani, Syria; young ragpickers searching for reusable materials at a garbage dump in New Delhi; a hot air balloon rising over the Margham desert, southeast of Dubai, United Arab Emirates; and performers repelling down a mechanical spider in Beijing.
