Oct 21, Salgado

Salgado has done much for documentary photography. He captures powerful images in black and white that almost don’t seem real. An example of some of his eye-opening work is Salgado’s project Gold. When you see the pictures attached below, you’ll know what I mean. Each picture is so compelling and strong, and truly tells more than 1000 words.
