Just Image:

JustImage.org features the work of photographer Matthew Cassel. The purpose of this site is to showcase photography that aims to bring about social change by exposing different stories of injustice throughout our world. This site is currently being developed. If you have any questions or interested in collaboration contact Matthew.

From all around Beirut, captured by a cell phone:
“Some friends in high school used to call me “White Cassel” because of the color of my skin + my last name. conveniently, it also sounds like an american fast food chain that spends a lot of money on marketing which should help people remember this blog. Updated with at least one picture daily (at least that’s the plan), all images are taken with my cell phone and mostly uploaded to this blog from it as well.”

On a picture taken - which you can see on his picture blog:

“taking this picture in the Hamra area of Beirut got me in trouble with the Hariri security folks or “shebab” (guys) who “guard” (sit) on the street. They made me erase the pic, little did they know I am a photographer and photographers always take 2 images! This is the first pic of many to come uploaded from my new cell phone!”
