The Photograph Has the Deeper Bite Memory Freeze Frames

Photographs shape how we understand the world around us. Savanna dodd runs the photography ethic centre in belfast. Every time we take and share a photograph, i think that we have an opportunity to either reinforce stereotypes or subvert stereotypes. I'm just writing war photography into my browser search bar, and there they are, terrible, brutal images of people running away from explosions. Women in head scarps weeping. A man blown into the air by an explosion. A child lying on the ground blindfolded,. rows of guns pointed to the sky, fire, smoke, destruction. The lens simply documents what's there.
