About Global Photojournalism; Politics, News, Protest, and Culture

If you can see though the lens you’re a photographer, if you can see beyond the lens you’re a photojournalist.

All people are welcome whether you’re a professional photojournalist or just happened to be in the right place at the right time to capture that one in a million shot. This group is dedicated to the interrelationship between politics, news/events, protest/war, and culture.

Welcome to our photographic journal of the world!
