Sohkin is a well recognised documentary photographer within Thailand and was named Photographer of the year 2013 by the Foreign Correspondents club. Sohkin took a series of images throughout Thailand depicting the poverty over there. He was admired after his reportage in a challenging environment showed the judges the highest ideals of documentary photography.
This is one of Sohkins images. This is a very hard hitting images as we see a lady who is in need of water and obviously has no where else to source if from and therefore she is resorting to hunting through old thrown away bottles to see if she can find one to drink. The technial aspect of this image is also very well done and interesting. I like the fact that Sohkin has used HDR as it is a bit different to many of the other photojournalism images. I think it adds to the 3D affect of the bottles and adds more colour to the image overall.
