A message had to be toled and the one photo would not convey enough. Three into one would.
Well done by a very brave man.

Interesting stuff. I got a book on the Pulitzer Prize winning photos over the decades and the accompanying stories. Some very adventurous and daredevil photojournalists out there.

Yeah Shan, got the book as a Chrissy present. There's some pretty good background to the shots and how the photographer ended up being at the right place and maybe the wrong time.

I have a book here called the Red Empire, mainly stalin era in the USSR, God, he was the master of rewriting history via photo's, awesome read.

I think Frank Hurley was the greatest photographer of all time, and an Aussie no less. The way he carefully composed so many photographs under such hardship is truly amazing. If I recall from the book, he destroyed hundreds of plates that he was unable to take with him.
