Perspective

Chris Hondros, a well-loved and courageous Getty Images staff photographer passed away earlier this year from RPG shrapnel on location in Libya. Here were a few of Chuck Liddy's thoughts in remembrance of Hondros's career. Let this be a lesson to all photographers who have a bit of an ego:


I am not a “war” photographer.

I am not a “conflict” photographer.

I’m an old newspaper guy who has been fortunate (depending how you look at it) to cover war and disasters over the years and have made a couple of photos I am proud of, even while working alongside Chris.
