After following a tip from a friend, I discovered the infamous Steve McCurry, the man known for one of the most well-known National Geographic magazine covers ever - The Afghan Girl. I have never seen more beautiful photographs in my entire life - his sheer breadth of work is beyond inspiring. So if you're looking for great photography that gives you a rare glimpse into the lives of many different cultures check him out. You will not be disappointed, that I can promise you.
Here's his blog; and here are some of my favorite photos of his...
If I ever had the opportunity to travel as a photojournalist, this is the kind of work I would be honored to do. Thank you Steve McCurry for bringing such beauty, pain, and emotion to my eyes.
Always,
Christina
