He Said: I was, of course, fearful and knew of the danger if the gunman turned toward me. But advanced a little and photographed the man as he hectored his desperate, captive audience.
This is what I was thinking - “I’m here. Even if I get hit and injured, or killed, I’m a journalist. I have to do my work. I could run away without making any photos…. But I wouldn’t have a proper answer if people later ask me - ‘Why didn’t you take pictures?’”
I even thought about friends and colleagues who have died while taking photographs in conflict zones over the years.
