“Photography’s a case of keeping all the pores of the skin open as well as the eyes. A lot of photographers today think that by putting on the uniform, the fishing vest and all the Nikons that makes them a photographer. But it doesn’t. It’s not just seeing. It’s feeling”
~ Don McCullin
Don is a one of a kind photographer, his intensity and passion are contagious. He is what I simply call the “the real thing”. No pretense.. He has dedicated his life to his “job” and has excelled at it for close to 70 years now. His body of work is just extraordinary.
It is early morning, a steel worker is on his way to his morning shift. But this is no ordinary "urban landscape”. It is like reading one of D.H. Lawrence’s great novels. The emotion is just so palpable, and the physical print in all its nuances of mood and texture just glows and breaks your heart.
