Photos of the day

Photojournalism is a form of journalism in which a collection of images create a story. This is different from all forms of photography cause you need to tell a story through that one picture. Anyone can take a picture but not many can take one like a photojournalist can. There are a lot of challenges that come with taking a miraculous photo. It is art because photography is a form of art but through this art there is usually a significant purpose. this purpose is to capture the surroundings and document it to show the world what certain moments felt like with out an essay. It puts the reader in this position which changes the feeling of the moment and brings more emotion vs reading it and seeing it. this makes new photography important and memorable because a picture can always be brought back up. the picture never changes so it helps constantly remind the reader of the emotion and feeling in the moment. A photojournalist captures the idea of a moment and continue to show it over and over. The memory the feeling never dies with in the picture no matter how old the picture might have been the memory within that picture never gets old.
