Photojournalism is a particular form of journalism. Its a branch of the field of journalism characterized by the use of images to tell a story.he images in a photojournalism piece may have explanatory text to help the viewer have a much better understanding. photojournalism involves photographing specific events, while documentary photography focuses on ongoing situations. However; on this blog is going to be focused on two famous photographers. 

Robert Capa was a Hungarian combat photographer and photojournalist who covered five different wars: the Spanish Civil War, the Second Sino-Japanese War, World War II across Europe. Capa was a famous war Photographer in 1936. During world war 2 Robert captured one of his many famous photo's called 'Dying Loyalist Soldier'.
 Robert worked for an American magazine called 'Life'. Robert was a free photographer, meaning that the photographs he took did not need to be checked or censored by anyone apart from the magazine that would publish his work.

on the other hand; in comparison to Tony Vaccaro who also happened to be a war photographer but was a soldier, his work was censored and some of it was not allowed to be published and destroyed. The camera that Vaccaro used was called the Speed Graphic. Around that time it was the most iconic camera. Henri Cartier Bresson was known to transform the face of photography. He never set things up, he always waited for events to happen and capture them. Some referred to him as a 'Stalker'. Bresson was a surrealist photographer, he always at the right place at the right time and he called it the decisive moment.
