22.01.2022 Hi all I’ll be posting pics and photographers who have influenced me into wanting to be a photo journalist and wanting change for the better. First will be the WAR photographers.

09.01.2022 Starting my pet ‘Mug Shots’ photography. Check out some of the pics

05.01.2022 Heading off to the field 49 yrs ago outside the UPI bureau in Saigon. I was slinging a flak jacket, backpack, helmet, pancho, and other combat accoutrement, goi...ng out for a week or two to photograph, in the words of Donald Trump, U.S. Military "losers and suckers." Meanwhile, Trump was riding around in daddy’s limo in NYC, picking up chicks, being a brave soldier for avoiding STDs. It’s amazing, II can’t even believe it. I’ve been so lucky in terms of that whole world, it is a dangerous world out there. It is my personal Vietnam. I feel like a great and very brave solider, Trump said in the interview when Howard Stern asked how he handled making sure he wasn’t contracting STDs from the women he was sleeping with.

02.01.2022 DON MCCULLIN- war photographer Sir Donald McCullin CBE (born 9 October 1935) is a British photojournalist, particularly recognised for his war photography and images of urban strife. His career, which began in 1959, has specialised in examining the underside of society, and his photographs have depicted the unemployed, downtrodden and the impoverished. My picture of the U.S. corpsman carrying an injured child away from the battle in Hué is a rare occasion to show the true val...ue of human kindness and the dignity of man. The child was found wandering the previous night between the North Vietnamese and the American firing lines. His parents had probably been killed. They took the child into a bunker, cleaned him up and dressed his wounds under candlelight. These hard Marines suddenly became the most gentle, loving persons. It was almost a religious experience for me to record this extraordinary event. The following morning, this corpsman took the child to the rear of the battle zone where he could be handed over for more medical attention. He carried the child as if it were his own, wrapped into a poncho, because it was quite cold. A naked limb is hanging from the poncho. Looking back today on this picture I took so long ago I can see that there is an echo here of the famous Robert Capa image of the woman whose head had been shaved at the end of WWII because she was considered to be a Nazi collaborator and had a child whom she hugs to her chest with a German soldier. I didn’t think of Capa when I pressed the shutter, but I believe both images share an emotional impact because they involve children. Though Capa’s illustrates cruelty, my corpsman illustrates humanity, almost saintliness a man carrying a child away from the sorrow and injuries of war. See more
