A good read

This is worth a read if you are interested in photojournalism, Robert Capa and war photographers:

Rogoyska's book about Gerda Tarot is also well worth a read too, I read it cover to cover this afternoon

A lady who needs to be remembered, to go into a war zone with nothing but a camera and lots of film takes more courage than I think I could find.

Would love to read the book,the risks are always high Capa was killed a few years later in Indo-China,also Chim who was with Capa & Tarot in Spain was killed in the Suez crisis not long after Capa.

Slightly OT but if anyone fancies being a war photographer this interview with Don McCullin might put you off, I found it very moving...

On a less violent note, I saw the hardback accompanying this project at the library the other day; didn't read it all the way but the illford section was good.

I've seen that quite a few times, fascinating and very moving indeed hearing him speak of his experiences.

I'm currently reading first light by Joe Cornish and getting very depressed, the time he must get up in the morning just isn't compatible with me!
