This an inspiring and fascinating interview of a man who was "at the right place, at the right time" to take some amazing photos.




Iconic Swiss photographer takes us on a journey through six images from his archive, photographing figures like Che Guevara chain-smoking in his office in 1963, Pablo Picasso in Cannes in 1957 and American G.I.s being entertained in a brothel in Seoul in 1961.

Burri also recalls his iconic 1960 São Paulo photograph 'Men on a Rooftop, 1960', shooting the San Cristobal Stables in Mexico city in 1976 and the reopening of the Suez Canal in 1974, explaining why modern techniques like photoshopping are getting in the way of our pursuit for the truth....

With vimeo. Com, you have often to use Thread Tools. Just above the threads. This shows Printable Version and the link comes up. You can view these videos on I pad which is what I use.

What a great idea for a thread IH!

Here is a collection from an iconic Australian photographer, David Moore. I was honoured to know him. He passed away 10 years ago, July 2003. A delightful gentle man and person. His work speaks for itself.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qyHthN8DQy4Some more of David Moore Photography.

These are some of his lesser known works, a lot of when he was living in Tasmania.

For those of you interested in photography, David Moore was a close friend and associate with another Ozzy Australian icon photographer, Max Dupain.
