Another Longshot.....Can anyone translate something in Greek?

I was wondering if anyone her could translate this Greek printing on the back of a photo I have. I know it may be a longshot but thought I would give it a try. I am getting nowhere on the internet.
Thanks,
Bob

You can upload the image to Google Translate and use Google Lens to translate. It seems to have trouble parsing some of the words, maybe due to the light stamp. But then again, some of it doesn't translate well at all with this program.

The word on the left says "photo reportage" according to translate (it's a little hard to see in this screenshot).

Hopefully this provides some leads for you.

Better translation is Photo Report Greeks and Foreigners.

I’m Greek and that’s the correct translation around. The middle of the circle is just names and the far side is the date of April 5

Looks like two names. Konstantin Chatzikonstantinos and Zia something.

It’s all Greek to me :D

The Apple Phone has a translate scanner too for anyone interested. I use it a lot with Roland’s Cuban Card book.

First off. Thanks for the help everyone. Now I have some things to try.
Here is the picture. The picture is Helen Chiotes. She was a CBS Journalist for 40 years and just recently passed away at 100 years. I bought a small collection of paper memorabilia at a flea market and it all was pertaining to her. There was even several 1950's Greek newspapers. There were two additional in the envelope with this picture all with the same stamp on the back.

I initially looked at this thread because I live next to Tarpon Springs and could find 1000 translators in ten minutes, but it seems the questions have been answered already.

Whats interesting is that I used the same app and got a slightly different translation. The meaning is essentially the same though.

My wife showed me the phone translator, one of the things I collect the best catalog is in German, which I sort of don't understand. (technical terms related to that hobby yes, the "normal words"...mostly no. )

It's been a huge help even if it has days when I doubt it understands German either.
