"A photo-essay (or photographic essay) is a set or series of photographs that are intended to tell a story or evoke a series of emotions in the viewer. A photo essay will often show pictures in deep emotional stages. Photo essays range from purely photographic works to photographs with captions or small notes to full text essays with a few or many accompanying photographs."

As interesting as the above essay is, I would love to see an RTH "photo essay" elocuted in compelling and expressive visuals, one that spoke eloquently and with emotional force... An essay whose thrust was articulated almost exclusively in images, with no words other than the briefest of captions and a pithy introduction. Personal preference, admittedly.
