Journalistic photography at its best!

Phillip,
A stunning and powerful image….I have a copy of a book called “Moments” which highlights a range of Pullitzer prize winning images, and this shot (and your other images) are up there with them in terms of quality and emotion….excellent work!!
PS do you carry a point and shoot camera or risk your SLR in these situations?
Phillip French replied
i carry my slr, with camera armor, i think its worth the risk :)
cheers, glad you enjoy my pics, phill
Woodie
Great shot Phil!! It says it all.
Chris Willis
Another awesome image, Phillip. We are so far removed from all that’s going on in the middle east…and it’s so very easy for people to criticize the war…but you guys have to go and do what is needed. I think that your photographs are full of emotion and atmosphere….great that you are able to tell the story with your images…keep em coming, and keep safe :-)
Sarah Lombart
Fantastic pictures…all of them. I agree with Mark, your work is fantastic.Why not to try to be published?
Phillip French replied
if you look at the books ‘op. snakebite’ and ‘dusty warriors’(hardback version), you’ll recognize some of the phots, (i used to be called phill ‘muir’ instead of ‘french’)
