Photojournalism has found a permanent home within online journalism. The internet has allowed such photo based magazines like National Geographic and well-known photographers to have websites. Famed war photographer James Nachtwey has been no exception.
James Nachtwey's website includes riveting images from horrible wars and situations all over the world. The internet has enabled Nachtwey to share these images with everyone all over the world so that people can be aware of the injustices and horrible situations that have occurred.
Online journalism goes beyond just the news media and has extended to even photojournalists who can share the world and the news in a different way. Without this type of media photojournalist would only be able to share their work through books or in publications. The internet has allowed photographers to give people the images that they want in the way they want without having a publication decide what people see. Everyone should witness the work of James Nachtwey to bring awareness to all the things that happen in the world.

Thank you for posting this! I've always like Nachtwey's photographs, but I never he had a website up.
Powerful stuff.
