Robert Capa  

Born Endre Friedmann to Dezső and Júlia Friedmann on October 22, 1913 in Budapest, Hungary. Deciding that there was little future under the regime in Hungary, he left home at 18.

In 1939 Capa emigrated to the United States and in 1942 he was recruited by Collier's Weekly as a photojournalist. He went to Britain and covered the Home Front before moving to North Africa. The following year Capa joined Life Magazine as a war photographer and accompanied Allied troops to Sicily in July 1943.

Capa also recorded dramatic photographs of the D-Day landing.What made Capa so exeptional from other war photographers was that he would take pictures of not just aftermath but of the action itself. That requared him to go side by side with soldiers risking his life. In all, Capa took 108 pictures in the first couple of hours of the invasion of France. Unfortunately, a member of the staff of Life Magazine made a mistake in the darkroom and only eleven were publishable.

Subsequently he reported on the early days of the state of Israel and then the attempt by France to hold onto Vietnam. Robert Capa was killed by a land mine in Vietnam in 1954.

Some of his photos: 

This photo of a man geting shot in  Spanish Civil War astablished capa as a modern war photographer but there is alot of arguing and evidence that a photo is a fake. Some of the arguments that points to photograph being fake is that soldier's arm would flex if he got shot and also it was said that that the picture does not correspond to any actual event.

Carlos Tarrats

Carlos Tarrats is a still life fine art photographer. His images are not digital manipulations but are constructed on a set and then printed digitally onto Kodak photographic paper. Much of his focus is on the versatility of plant life and serves as his main subject. When he holds his camera, he is considering life, death, hope and conflict. The protagonist is his photos, plants, may end up visually distorted, however he is shooting to give his viewer’s imagination a big dose of hope. “Hope is the possibility for something else, not necessarily something better and yet not necessarily something worse. Whether one is better than the other depends on one’s perception. 

Here are a few of his works:

looking through his works you notice a lot of them has damaged plants and blood like looking splatter which creates quite a chaotic atmosphere like the photos where taken near explosion.

Inseption-short rewiev

I am reviewing movie called "Inception" which is written and directed by Christopher Nolan which stars Leonardo DiCaprio as a main character Don Cobb and in my opinion Leonardo DiCaprio is one of the best actors alive becouse in every movie he gets into his character wery well.

Don Cobb which is really good at extraction and that is stealing information from people minds in their sleep but he gets a job and the reward for completing it is that he could get his old life back whitch he lost but its not his usual job of extracting information this job's goal is not of extracting information but plating an idea in persons mind. I am not going to explain any more of the plot because i think the best way to see this film is without knowing much of a plot.


There wasn't allot of special effects in the movie and I think that's is good because special effects that was in the movie were really good and it made movie look more realistic.

All in all the movie left me really impressed and after movie ended I still was thinking about it for quite a while because it left quite a few questions.
