Steve McCurry: gorgeous photographs of people reading around the world. | stories are everywhere
Photojournalist Steve McCurry is best known for shooting one of the most famous photographs ever taken -– 1985′s “Afghan Girl,” an image of a young girl with sea green eyes staring defiantly into the camera. But war and those affected by it are not his only subjects. “Like most photographers, I’m fascinated by people in everyday situations,” he says. “The work I do is mostly wandering and observing human nature and human activity, working and playing and leisure time. As you’re walking around the streets of China, India, New York, whererver -– it is fun to photograph people simply doing things.” One of his ongoing projects is compiling a collection of photos of people reading, entitled “Fusion: The Synergy of Energy and Words” (Part I and Part II). McCurry’s photos cross these cultural and socioeconomic boundaries. As a photographer, McCurry is always on the hunt for the “unguarded moment,” that slice of time that reveals something personal and honest. Thailand Afghanistan Jaipur, India
