WAR....
by howxq
In light of wars around the world, people wants to know the truth, the naked truth of what is going on down there. The press censors to protect the political integrity of country. People are too afraid to tell the truth for fear of their own safety. Even if they have spoke up, no one would believe them.
People killing people, children dying in the streets, families destroyed by a single mortar bomb.
All these stories were left untold.
There are a special breed of people who are out there to capture the truth; evidence of what is really going on there. They are the war photographers. With their cameras, they place themselves in positions that others might find crazy; to capture what people might not see or might not want to see. Risking their life, keeping their cool and channeling their anger to clear their vision, they bring back what was real and what we should be seeing rather than what the press wants us to see.
Here's a War Photographer- James Nachtwey who have won the 2007 TED Prize.
