“The only true voyage of discovery……would be not to visit strange lands, but to possess other eyes, to behold the universe through the eyes of another,” (Marcel Proust)
Every one of us is journeying through time and journeys are often the start of stories. This is often the basis documentary photography photographs ‘about something,’ rather then photos ‘of something.’

Above is an image about Peace. It shows a girl handing a flower to a soldier as a sign of peace, and grew to be a very iconic photo in the Flower Power Movement. The image was taken during a protest against the Vietnam War. It is almost a piece of history captured in time, and it tells a story and talking about the power of love and peace in the face of violence.
