Photo essay on the Iraq war
By Will 2 months ago, 1 Comment »
It’s five years since the Americans invaded Iraq. Not even the most pessimistic of commentators would have predicted they would have so much troops still in the country, half a decade later.
Reuters have produced a commemorative video - or rather a photo essay, which is even better for this particular subject. Anyone interested in journalism, photography (or, let’s face it, war in general) should not hesitate in clicking here immediately.

Yes this blog is largely about cricket, but I occasionally post other things - particularly on journalism and photography

I was about to pour scorn on England’s filthy performance today, but the following site just popped up on Google Reader…and reminded me just how pointless and insignificant sport is. It’s almost laughable! Reuters photographic coverage of Kenya has been outstanding and, for any fans of photographic journalism, the following (horrific) photos are a must. In fact, even if you don’t care for photography, it’s worth reminding yourself what is happening in Kenya.
