Documentary Photography is a means of capturing our history in a more visual way that allows for the viewer to feel more connected to the historical event. In this case, the photographs taken by Robert Capa capture the events of D-Day. He risked his life on more than one occasion during the Spanish Civil War and had taken what is considered the most eerily fascinating of all war photographs. The magnitude of importance of these photographs make them even more powerful and the great technique and detail make the photographs ones that highlight these monumental historical events.
