Description
An unidentified photojournalist takes a photo during a press conference in Guatemala. He is wearing glasses and taking a photo using a Nikon camera. Hanging around his neck is another Nikon camera and a smaller unidentified camera. Behind him there are other photographers. The press conference was held by the three principal presidential candidates to claim voter fraud in the 1982 elections against Ángel Aníbal Guevara. A military coup prevented Guevara from assuming power and installed a three-man junta headed by General Efraín Ríos Montt.
