1. Well that post got seriously fucked up.
It was rather longer (much) and intended to draw attention a series on the Documentary Channel http://www.documentarychannel.com/main/ that has covered the the work of Ron Havic


and "War Photographer" James Nachtwey http://www.jamesnachtwey.com (the bittorrent is at http://chomskytorrents.org/ - search for Nachtwey) who produced images such as this:


Sorry for the posting problem, but see these guys' work if you can.

4. Thanks - A typo needs to be corrected - It was Ron Haviv
not Havic. Some of his work, on the Balkan wars, is at http://www.bloodandhoney.com/ And use Google Images to search on his name for more.

The documentaries are extraordinary if people can see them - "Ron Haviv: Freelance in a World at Risk" and on Nachtwey "War Photographer." Truthtellers, utterly devoted to that goal, and willing to take incredible risks.

3. What an amazing photographer......
Thanks for bringing him to our attention.

I marvel at how he happens to be in all these dangerous places at just the right time to take these brilliant photos.
