H2O Project Examples

For my H2O project i plan on creating a Photo essay of numerous s
urfers, people, and beaches such as OB. 
These are an example of some photo essays that i would like mine t
o look like. 
The topics are just different.


Historic Day
Birmingham and Selma, Alabama witnessed critical moments of the civil rights movement. In the early 1960s Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. led massive protests in these cities that eventually led to the Voting Rights Act of 1965, which outlawed the widespread discriminatory practices that had for decades prevented African Americans from voting.

Congolese government forces man the front lines in eastern Congo, Sunday November 9. The fighting between rebels and the government has left tens of thousands of refugees desperate for international aid. The fighting in eastern Congo is fueled by ethnic hatred left over from the 1994 slaughter of at least 500,000 Tutsis in neighboring Rwanda.



These relate to my project because the picture is so detailed the reader can already tell what the article is going to be about. 
Also i chose these because the writing is short and simple, but still gets the story across.
