Discussion Topic: Tim Hetherington and Modern-day War Photography

Hetherington as the photojournalist was in fact a very heroic act. He did what not many have the courage or even thought of the fact of going to photograph was photos. Showing us how cruel and wretched the world can be he did show us the bad side in life. He risked his life everyday just to take pictures to show us what many soldier are fighting for. He showed us the dream of true peace, where there would be no violence and destruction. I thought that was his vision. To influence the world that this is what his is risking his life for, to show us and hopefully bring us together and finally maintain peace. He was a heroic man risked his life to show powerful pictures.
