I'm not sure what struck me the most... the photos or the words that Fusco said. He has put much emotions in capturing his subjects, and it has reflected to me as well. It doesn't matter that if you didn't have a family member in the army or not, it doesn't even matter if you are Amercian or not..... but I think we'd all have the same feeling after looking at this essay. I think this is the best so far. Well done!

Unbelievable. I'm a big fan of *all* of these presentations. Best stuff I've ever seen on the Web.

As a family member of an American solider, thank you. As a photographer, I hope that images such as these will help to change the American media that shrouds these realities, and I sincerely hope to be a part of this change as a photographer. You are way ahead of me. But I think and hope that WE, Americans, are just getting started in taking back our democracy.

Martin, I was totally blown away by the latest feature. The voice over was exceptionally powerful with all that emotion from Mr. Fusco adding a dimension to the images that would be impossible to create in any other medium. At one point he made me feel so angry at my own inability to do something. Very, very powerful. His comments on getting this published in the U.S. were also very revealing. This is a fantastic discussion piece on so many levels.

New Magnum Photos Feature - And what else is going on

New Magnum Photos Feature: Bitter Fruit by Paul Fusco | © Magnum Photos and Paul Fusco
And yet again there is another multimedia essay published by Magnum. This time it's Paul Fusco's "Bitter Fruit" which shows photographs we weren't supposed to see. Fusco began his essay on the funerals of the American soldiers killed in Iraq in November 2003. Since then he traveled to some 27 different cities and towns.
This essay is going to accompany an exhibition by Paul Fusco which will be shown at this years VISA POUR L'IMAGE, the Perpignan International Photojournalism Festival.

To see more multimedia essays and hear the photographers comments visit the Magnum In Motion website for a listing of these essays.

Margaretville Photos are published on Clandestina

A selection of the photographs I took in and around the small town of Margaretville in Upstate New York was published today on the Argentinian online magazine "clandestina.trips". Honestly I am not totaly happy with the edit and the sequence of the photographs there. They cut some images out because they do only publish eight photos on each city and they used a different sequence than I sent them. I'll just contact them and ask them to change that. You can anyway view the new edition of clanedtina.trips here or see the whole set of photographs in my gallery.
