Guatemala: Is it enough?

Is it enough to go to a foreign country and take cool photos to bring back to our western culture, a kind of photojournalistic voyeurism? For me it isn't. I want Christians to see my photos and feel such Godly compassion and love for the people in them that they will be moved to action.
Alone, we may or may not change entire nations. But, we can each affect those we learn of or come in contact with. My photography is worthless unless it causes us to act.
