There's an auction taking place in London next week of vintage prints from the Vietnam War, including those from the book 'Requiem' and some by NV photographers. Details are here: http://www.immf.org/auction3.html It's worthwhile to follow the link to the catalogue, http://www.imagesagainstwar.com/indochina/ then scroll down and look at some of the PDFs. They include recent images, such as photos by John Stoddart of British troops in Iraq this year. His portfolio won this year's Larry Burrows award for outstanding photojournalism. Here: http://www.imagesagainstwar.com/indochina/IMMF_09_L_251-298_Indi.pdf There are some amazing photographs in these catalogues. -- Cheers, Bob mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
