What do you want to show the world through your photography ? Can we change the world through photography ?

Question

I have been brainstorming how I might use some of my pic's to stop logging in the National Forrests. I thought we set em aside to preserve, not "manage". Thats what I'm up to, how bout' you...

Answer 1

those that shot the fur seals being murdered changed the world

i would like to document people missing limbs because of land mines

i would like to document the suffering inflicted on the people of iraq

i would like to document the children murdered in the iraq "war"

i know people wont look at the shoots, then they would have to feel something, if they feel bad enough about the inhumanities that go on in the name of "peace" or oil then they might feel guilt for sitting on their hands and voting for their back pocket

people are dying in the name of peace every single hour of the day - i would love to show that to people even if only one person decided to do something about it -

i dont like horrific images who does........but i dislike the taking of life more

people are people cut them they bleed, murder their families they hate...........most people prefer to ignore it and think iraqis arent people or something

any images that make people think about the real issues would be great ------ but people dont want to feel and dont want to look so i wouldnt make any money - how would i fund myself? - and then theirs the newspaper magnets who wont publish real images anyway

I want to help people to understand people who are different from them. Some people dont realize that just because you live in the same city as someone else you dont necessarily live in the same world as them. Not everyone has the same options... the same chances... yes, we can change the world through photography... the only thing more impactful would be experiencing whatever is going on in person. As far as you project show the effects

Answer 3

There were sevearal photos, taken during the Viet Nam War, that were credited for their contributions to ending that conflict. Men were seen, dieing in a buddy's arms, civilians dislodged from their homes, and, one particularly moving image of a naked, little girl, her skin horribly scarred by burns, running down a dirt road, among hundreds of other refugees.

Images taken durning the Great Depression brought home the tragedy of homeless Americans into the homes of the, merely, poor.

Yes, photographs CAN make changes to the world. It's up to you to find, capture and publish the images that will serve your cause.
