How to be a photojournalist?

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Dirck Halstead : One Thread

Hi to all of you!

My name is Latuff. Basically I am a cartoonist, but few months ago a street experience with an old Minolta made me think about to produce some action photos. That's why I decided to buy a camera and make a trip to Angola. Sounds crazy, huh? But believe me, I am serious about that. I think these pictures can be useful as a shout against war. However, since I am completely newby on photojournalism, I would like to make contact with professional photojournalists to get some tips. If you are interested to gimme a hand, please, contact me by email or even ICQ. Email: latuff@gbl.com.br ICQ: 2699738

Thank you all in advance!

Best regards,

Latuff
