The 2013 Year in Photography

Documentary photography holds a vast amount of power. The power it holds is delegating, riveting and awakening. It has the power to dig into your soul based on what you are seeing. Out of TIME magazines top 10 photographs my favorite is the guy waving the Turkish flag collapsing from the tear gas. The power this image holds shows the pride in citizens. Even though there is tear gas and the guy is collapsing he is still holding his countries flag in his hand tall. The power documentary photography has allows you to feel what is occurring in the photograph. You can sort of feel the pain or heart that is in the photograph. Documentary photography makes you feel this way because it is real. There are vivid events.
