Photojournalism




These photos are from a gallery on the University of Westminster website.
The university offers a year program in photojournalism, a career I am looking in to.
I love these three photos because they offer such different feelings. The one of the girls is sad and disturbing and makes me feel a little frighten about what is being taught to children in North Korea.
The one of the girl dancing has a feeling of liveliness and playfulness. However, the girl in the photo is a prostitute in Iran. With this information, the feeling of the photo changes to a little more surreal.
The last photo is one of my favorites. Although the gut feeling is sadness for the man who lost his arms, the feeling quickly changes to joy and respect for the young boy helping the man button his shirt.
