Amazing Slide Show

New Times has done it again. They have put together a great slide show from their pictures of the day and the pictures are (of course) amazing. I think they are a great display of phenomenal photojournalism.

I really like how they cover such a wide range of global news. I think it is important to have this kind of multi-media because it really brings emotion to a story and reminds us what challenges people in other countries are experiencing, which I think is easy to forget with everything going on in our own country.

I especially like the one of the Congolese woman with her children, enduring so much, but still remaining to look so strong. The helicopter delivering the generator in Afghanistan is another one of my favorites. Not only is it a great picture overall, but it does an amazing job of telling the story. This is what photojournalism is about! Well done!
