James Nachtwey


As I watched the video on Nachtwey's photography I was a bit disturbed by the images, but I then realyzed that, that's what's going on in this world we live in. We always like to see the beauty of things, but not the ugly part. Sometimes you tend to forget that there are a lot of issues going on in example; war, poverty, natural disasters, diseases,and so on. Natchtwey's pictures for me were a reminder of reality, and that not everything is beautiful.  Great photography in it's own special way. Every time I see images like the ones on this video makes me value, and appreciate what I have. Sometimes we take things for granted, and we shouldn't because many people out there would want the type of life we have.
