I don't know if anyone else here has an interest in photojournalism, but anyhow...I'm endlessly fascinated with it and the real stories it tells about the world.
Here are a few of my favourite shots...feel free to share yours, if you have them. Sorry these are all pretty grim. There is plenty of upbeat photojournalism around though, I must just be feeling morbid today.

Pieter Hugo specialises in often surreal shots of African street life.

Mali 1975 by Sebastiao Salgado - one of the very best photojournalists in the world. His "The Majority World" series is just brilliant.This shot is deliberately confronting, so don't look if you feel you might be upset.
