The Storytelling Power of Photography | Renée Byer  “For me, photography isn’t a profession—it goes much, much deeper than that. I have an innate curiosity that drives me beyond the obvious.” “I’m passionate about photojournalism and the power of the enduring, still image to inform and bring understanding to issues.  “In this fast-paced world, where the emphasis is on immediacy, a still photograph stops time. It gives the viewer a moment to think, to react, to feel.” — Renée Byer https://youtu.be/Z3CDOS4GNdQ Carrie Mae Weems: "Grace Notes: Reflections for Now" | Art21 "Extended Play https://youtu.be/PA2ZkPpHGhA   Arnold Newman Lecture Series on Photography: Dawoud Bey https://youtu.be/hMU0n5IEi5c Visual Language Is Language: The Importance of Reading the Pictures in Visual Culture https://youtu.be/18OcunnXiaI

I want you to focus on strong contrasting light and the resulting deep shadows that are pro...
