War Photographer- James Natchway

Most of you in class should have remembered the interesting documentary titled "War Photographer" shown by Mr Cox. For those who weren't present, here is a little short write-up on war-photography, the film and James Natchway himself.
War Photography
War photography depicts the terrors of war by capturing real life images in zones of conflicts. These images usually portray accurately the exact situation in war-torn areas because they are difficult to alter or modify in photographs.
War Photographer
In this film, the director trys to convey the message that although war photographers acts as an eye for the world to realize what is going on in a remote part of the world, many of them do not actually see themselves as part of the scenario. Hence, they are sometimes deemed as an uncompassionate bunch of people because in their quest for the best pictures to appear on their tabloids, some would turn so engrossed in their work and unknowingly yearn to see a human being brutally killed in order to capture a particular picture on their cameras.
James Natchway
Contrary to uncaring war journalists who see themselves as not being part of the situation, James Natchway (picture top), a famous war photographer, emphasizes the need to consider and take into account the sentiments of his subjects. The secret to his works that often display a great amount of intimacy lies simply in his efforts to build a close rapport with them. Nachtwey was born in New York. Growing up in Massachusetts, he graduated from Leominster High School and attended Dartmouth College from 1966 – 1970 studying art history and political science. Images from the Vietnam War and the American Civil Rights movement had a powerful effect on him and shaped his decision to become a photographer. In 1976, his first step as a newspaper photographer began when he worked at a small newspaper in New Mexico. He moved back to New York in 1980 where he began his career as a freelance photographer. In 1981, he was first assigned overseas to report on civil strife in Northern Ireland during the IRA hunger strike. There was to be no turning back on his passion and he ever since, he had worked in El Salvador, Nicaragua, Guatemala, Lebanon, the West Bank and Gaza, Israel, Indonesia, Thailand, India, Sri Lanka, Afghanistan, the Philippines, South Korea, Somalia, Sudan, Rwanda, South Africa, Russia, Bosnia, Chechnya, Kosovo, Romania, Brazil and the United States. Nachtwey has been a contract photographer with Time Magazine since 1984.

Ce sont quelques photos que j'ai faites, sans grand thème particulier, si vous avez des questions écrivez moi sur pierreguerold@hotmail.com.
A friend and I enjoy riding our bikes in a town located in the Essonne, called Verrières-le-Buisson. We took some photos one afternoon with a digital (reflex) Nikon D50 camera. None of the following photos are retouched.
I took this first photo with 1/15 for an exposure time (the camera automatically adjusted the aperture). Even though it does not appear because of the exposure time, it was becoming dark. I followed my friend the most accurately I could with the camera during his jump so he is quite clearcut, and the background is blurred.
The next photography was taken with an exposure time of 30 seconds. I have put the camera on a stone and I went in front of the camera eye for about 10 seconds. Well, in fact, I guess it was not me but a ghost...
Those last pictures were taken with an exposure time of 15 seconds and are very easy to do.
