“This is what I saw,” says National Geographic photojournalist David Guttenfelder. The veteran photographer, who has worked for the venerable globetrotting magazine for more than two decades, is one of the only Westerners to capture modern images of the cloistered and insulated countries of Cuba and North Korea, where he helped open the country’s first Associated Press news bureau in 2011. In this installment of National Geographic Live, titled “A Rare Look—North Korea and Cuba,” Guttenfelder presents a slide show like no other, contrasting the grandeur of state-coordinated propaganda shoots with revealing slices of everyday life in two of the world’s least understood nations.
