Not sure how I got on the Daylight Magazine mailing list,
but once in a while these leads are worth following:
up on the site this month is a visually stunning podcast by
the photographer Peter van Agtmael, describing
his experiences in Iraq. "The only truth I found" he
narrates, "is that fear corrupts everything". I have to
say- before seeing this work, I couldn't imagine what kind
of existence soldiers over there must lead, - but these
pictures are so pointed, and not without the ephemera,
the humor, and the rawness that must accompany daily
toil, that they bring the usual perspective on the
war to an entirely new level.
