   Land, Andrei Liankevich

Welcome to the second edition of Enter, the online magazine of World Press Photo’s Educational Departmental for participants and organizations involved in the foundation's seminar programs.

First of all, many thanks to all of you who provided feedback after the publication three months ago of edition one.

Almost all the reaction was extremely positive and we have done our best to implement some of the suggestions you made for improving Enter. Please let us know what you think of edition two as well. It is your magazine, after all.

And please do take advantage of some of the interactive features in Enter.

Ask The Expert, for instance, gives you a chance to pick the brains of some of the leading professionals in photojournalism so do send us a question, and a suggestion of who might answer it, to the email address on the Ask The Expert main page.

Talking Point is meant to be just that. So let us know if you agree with one of today's leading documentary photographers, Sebastião Salgado, who is featured in this issue. Is, as he suggests, the Environment one of the most important – or perhaps the most important – subject for a photojournalist these days? And if you don’t agree, then let us know why.

One of the aims of Enter is to encourage dialogue between photojournalists so that experiences and opinions can be shared between professionals many thousands of miles apart.

All the contents are explained in the column to the right. You can easily navigate around them using the menu to the left, which appears on every page.
If you received an email from World Press Photo telling you about this edition of Enter, it is either because you have been connected with the seminar program in the past or you registered to receive the email in edition one. You do not need to register again. You will automatically receive another email telling you when the next edition appears in a few months.

If you do not wish to receive that email, please visit the Register page and then ask to be removed from the mailing list using the link there.

If you did not receive an email about Enter or were recommended to come here by a friend, you will need to register to be alerted when each new edition of the magazine appears. Visit the Register page and submit your details.

And please do tell your friends, or anyone else you think might be interested, about Enter. Just click Tell a friend and follow the instructions.

If you are connected to the internet using dial-up, you may have arrived directly at this index page, skipping the cover which is a full-page image and takes some time to unload. You may wish not to click the Cover button on the left-hand menu in future and so avoid a wait for download. You are missing no important information by doing so.

Visitors using a broadband connection should be able to download the cover without problem.
