Photo Journal
This photojournalism blog is composed of a variety of pictures expressing a wide range of emotions. From flooded farm land to a captivating picture from space, this journal has many interesting photos from around the world showing different cultures and personalities of people. The pictures in this journal are of a very high quality which is why it caught my attention, photos of art and sports are depicted from strong view points which make this journal different from others. The only reading involved are short captions of the photos which, in my opinion, is better because long blogs about from one individuals opinion can be uninteresting and boring. These pictures allow the viewer to create a mental story to go along with each photo.

This photo blog interest me mainly because of how they describe each picture. Instead of posing a random photo with no indication of where and when it was taken, this website tells where the photo takes place, what the message of the picture is, and even the photographers reason for taking the picture. This blog provides information on the photographers of each picture and describes their experience while taking the picture. For example one picture was taken at a pharmacy in Mexico and the photographer described the situation with people illegally bringing prescription drugs to the U.S. and also about her experience crossing the border and what she learned while there. The description of the photos is what makes this blog stand out among others.
