an expo

I went to the Scottish Parliament today to see some of the most riveting and inspiring events captured by professional photographers all over the world. This is the World Press Photo 2011 where most of the time I was cringing in pain from some of the disturbing events. I left that expo feeling sad from all the painful truth but still inspired.

You can go to their website to know what I actually mean as I cannot take photos of their actual work because I might get sued if I do. :D

Oh man, what an expo. It made you cringe, but left a strong impression on everyone, which is what it was supposed to do.
