Portrait photography and photojournalism are two potentially intense and powerful art forms that don't always get the recognition they deserve, so we thought we should show you some of the most powerful and diverse portraits of people around the world that we've ever seen.

Both the faces of the people in these photos and their contexts speak volumes about the people pictured and the worlds they live in. Some can be unimaginably and even horrifically different from ours, while other once-exotic worlds seem to grow closer and more interconnected with our own. Though they are only photos, looking into their eyes can still give us a feeling of connection.

If you have a powerful portrait that you think should be added to this collection, please don't hesitate to add it and vote for your favorites as well.

    These guys are no joke. This is a big tourist attraction and they're world famous partly bc of Hollywood but the temple is serious about the training and discipline. The guys get the c**p beat out of them ALL THE TIME. They are hardcore martial artists and also do performances for tourists. They display their extreme skill endurance and strength and they make it look effortless but it's anything BUT effortless. I worked at a private billiard club and there were a handful of young men that had been Shao Lin Monks...they would still go to their temple here in America once a year for several months and they'd come back bald and much healthier in mind body and soul. The rest of the time they dressed like rappers and had the most beautiful wives and girlfriends. Super sweet guys. Really fun and funny. They tipped well too!

    This isn't an interracial issue. The Rwandan Genocide was Civil War. This was done by one tribe to another.Absolutely correct. Very very messed up. A lot of genocidal rape and mutilation. If his face looks like this then you can't imagine what was done to the rest of him. They would mutilate women so they couldn't give birth or breast feed. I mean probably some of the most grisly acts of warfare in modern history was done to the Tulsi.

    That skinny little hand makes me physically ill. Food is my love language. It was a big part of the dynamics between the women that raised me and it's a big deal in how I raise my children. As a mother you go hungry if that means your child eats. But what do you do when you have a child and you're not capable of any other method of feeding that child besides at your own breast. There's no bottles where your at. Let alone powdered formula. You haven't had a real meal in well over a year and you haven't had a scrap or a crumb in a week. Your milk dries up. You CAN NOT FEED YOUR BABY....this is the reality for some women and it breaks my heart into pieces.

    Strange that there is such beauty in such horror. I mean the live, that has dominion over death. It really gives one a perspective, makes me feel that maybe we are not all alone after all in our lives. My heart breaks, yes, of course, still there is something akin to light in the dark; knowing such love exists.
