Images are used to enhance journalism. Without them, the reader would not get to experience a visual account of people's emotions as well as the historical impact that these events create. With photographs, the reader gets a view throught a window to the world, coming into contact with human emotions and intense events, like national disasters, or warfare. The photographer is essential for bringing the story to life, using images that convey feelings and anomalies. A mere image can impact the world, and change the course of human events.
