This world is a crazy-beautiful place and there is so much that goes on that people are too unaware of. I chose Steve Mccurry for one of my photographers because Steve travels around the world and captures images from all kinds of places from Pakistan to Afghanistan to the Philippines, covering grounds from war-zones to people's hometowns and lifestyles. Steve captures the human condition of unguarded and vulnerable moments and conflicting events. I like to call Steve a photographer of the cold, hard, truth about conflict and events that people either don't know about or conflict and events that people know about but choose to ignore and brush off. Just by looking at his images, they make you feel and they really make me take a second to think about other people and places and what they are possibly feeling like living a completely different life than the life you probably live. His images are so moving and his use of color is phenomenal and I honestly think he is my favorite photographer right now.
