Photographing the Reality of War

 This article is about a photographer for the New York Times, Lynsey Addario, who spent several months in Ukraine documenting the war through pictures. In the article we see Addario's work and she explains her process when documenting something so serious. The article also includes some reflection questions for the viewers after studying the photo. Some examples of the questions are "How do you think photographs are important in reporting about the war in Ukraine?" and "What is Ms. Addario’s approach to photographing war? What is her usual focus?" I liked the style of this article because it was interactive and allowed me to physically see what is going on in Ukraine and form feelings and opinions. It also allowed me to learn how to put myself in their shoes and just imagine what it would be like to be in the middle of a war. Although the pictures are sometimes hard to see it's important to understand what they are going through and how we can help.
