Sebastiao Salgado is a Brazilian photojournalist known in the whole world. Different from many Brazilians at that time, Sebastiao had a good childhood. He graduated on college and after that he got married with a pianist. Sebastiao is known for his own style to take pictures.



What most motivated me about him is that he always going to poor areas to show people in worst conditions than anybody else. He is always helping them and his pictures promote a better way to these people get help from different areas of the world. 

His quote which most called my attention is on his book called Exodus. "More than ever, I feel that the human race is only one. There are differences in color, language, culture and opportunity, but people's feelings and reactions are similar. People flee wars to escape death, migrate to improve their luck."  This quote made me think how similar everybody is. We might have different characteristics but we always have the same goals. People always try to prove how good they are do not matter how they will always find a way to show that they are worthy.  

"People should be living like I". I got this quote from the video "Kenyan Journalist" Felix Masi was the man who said it. Both photojournalists have the same mind, help the others. I believe be a photojournalist can change people's live, mainly their own lives. 

His motivation was help people in my map I said that help is equals support. What I meant by that is if we all help someone, we are supporting them and this person will help someone as well, is like a circle, that we cannot break. 

                             

Steve Mccurry is a brave man which is not afraid to get his job done. What most called me about his work is how to get so many photos in places with historical conflicts days after day, this kind of motivated me too because does not matter what you have to do to get your job done you gotta do it. "I don't think pictures are worth dying for, but I don't want to live knowing I was timid." He will always be remembered for his pictures, he was never timid. Also, is very easy to see the sadness look and fear in the people photographed by him. 


This photo was one his most successful works. He won diverse awards with this picture.  

"He told everyone that he believed his photographs would encourage people to exert the force to right wrongs."This quote came from the video "Lewis Hine - A Progressive Reformer". Another person who was not timid and face problems doing her best to stop it. She could change people's opinion with her photos facing whatever she had to deal with it.

His motivation was to show how much people suffer and try to help them sharing his pictures. People are in the war every day, sometimes they cannot do anything about it to stop it. Steven was trying to help them showing his photos to call people's attention, he was fighting for it, he was not timid and never stop until he gets what he wants.


Ansel different from the other photojournalists that I mentioned had a hard childhood. His father lost his fortune and after that his father did not spend time with him or with his family trying to get his fortune back. He had dyslexia and he was not very successful in school. 

I got motivation when I read story about Adam. Nothing in life will be easy, or sometimes it will never goes the way that you want to go but it does not matter, or focus and discipline has to be higher than our frustrations or fears. His motivation was the nature. He loved take pictures of the nature and see how beautiful it is. He did not care about his past or his personal problems, he face it, and he made history. 

Ask yourself: "Does this subject move me to feel, think and dream?" Photograph made him dream, and he left 12 years of piano to make this dream come true, when he did not even could be good at school and a lot of people did not believe on him he made it happen. 

Ansel was the guy which never give up. He motivation inspires me. He kept going and he became a good photojournalist, and after all he went through, he did not care he kept going.
