As a self-described news junkie, I spend many hours each week reading a wide range of articles from numerous print and online publications – both domestic and international. I also see many images that accompany these stories and am reminded every day how powerfully photographs can tell a story. As the Annenberg Space for Photography so aptly states, the best images produced by photojournalists “…create a visual representation of the challenges of modern civilization, with themes such as human conflict and interaction, our relationship with the environment, how we appraise our economic status and the range of human emotions from intense joy to sorrow.”
