Tim Hetherington and Modern-day War Photography

I heard once, “choose a job you love and you will never have to work again”. This was probably the case of Hetherington. He picked a job he loved so he enjoyed every second of it. It was a dangerous job but he was fearless. Hetherington’s vision was to show the soldiers’ life after a day of destruction and death. After all we are all humans, we have feelings and needs. Hetherington was probably trying to emphasize the response from the soldiers after coming back from a battlefield in his photographs. How they felt, how they took out their stress, and how they tried to forget everything and enjoyed life for a second.
