Welcome to edition five of Enter, the online magazine of World Press
Photo's Education Department for participants and organizations involved in
the foundation's seminar programs.
As in edition four, our galleries feature mixed portfolios from a collection
of talented photojournalists.
They range from a behind-the-scenes look at the Winter Olympics in February
2006 to a study of women fighting with Kurdish separatists in Turkey.
Together with images of ingenious ways people in Armenia adapt everyday objects for alternative use and a study of the aftermath of a recent Indonesian earthquake.
But can we trust modern photographs? It is the question explored in this edition's
Talking Point in which the practical and ethical issues surrounding photo-manipulation
are explored. Let us know what you think by using the email link at the end
of Talking Point.
Close-Up profiles Mo Amin, the man whose pictures of famine in Africa in the
nineteen eighties led to Live Aid. His was work that changed history.
And Agenda again alerts you to some of the events, competitions and exhibitions
worldwide which are taking place or have closing dates between this issue and
the next.
If you have any upcoming information for Agenda, or are involved in organizing an event, let us know by using the email link at the foot of the Agenda page. We are particularly interested in what is planned between February and June 2007.
