Once again our sponsors at Think Tank Photo have hooked three regional Photo Brigade Editors up with one of their bags and let us have at it!

Pinar Istek, MU masters candidate, photographed how the people of Guatemala are trying to rebuild their lives after hurricane Agatha.

John Schreiber, MU masters candidate, photographed a story about a gay couple’s struggle to survive while living with AIDS during the recession.

Mallory Benedict, photojournalism student, did an internship with the Falling Whistles, a nonprofit campaign for peace in the Democratic Republic of Congo that strives to rehabilitate war-affected children in the region and advocating for their freedom. The Falling Whistles would like your photos to help this great cause.
