One of favorite photos, that I even have in my room. This is one of Doisneau's most famous photos, that he did not plan, it happened on spot, only a great photographer could capture this moment so beautifully. 

Picture of the week and Photojournalist of the week: Robert Capa

By: Robert Capa D-day

Robert Capa is a famous war photographer, know for his impact by showing his audience war and the effects of it. I really love this shot because it shows that he has no special protection he is out with the soldiers in the middle of  war. To me he was one of the bravest and greatest photojournalist, he had a great eye and captured what others were afraid to do.

  This was taken on the second night of a four-night stay on top of this glacial pass in southern Iceland. I picked the spot late in the afternoon and camped out waiting for the night to fall and hoping for some showing of the northern lights. It turned out to be one of the most memorable evenings of my life; the display was incredible.

William Albert Allard’s stunning scene of spring blossoms takes advantage of a very simple element—the wind. When a fortunate breeze created a snowfall of blossoms, Allard was in a perfect position to capture the scene’s beauty. —Annie Griffiths
