Photographer Don McCullin

“Photography for me is not looking, it’s feeling. If you can’t feel what you’re looking at, then you’re never going to get others to feel anything when they look at your pictures”“You do not go away from here without carrying a huge burden, if you are a decent human being and you have a conscience.”“I photograph the humble, the anonymous, who are spontaneous and mirror all of us.”

Vietnam, 1968

Don McCullin with Delta Company, 1/5th US Marines during the Battle for Hue, Tet Offensive, Vietnam. 1968, February In January 1968, North Vietnamese forces occupied the ancient Imperial Citadel of Hue in one of the surprise attacks of the Tet Offensive. Don McCullin accompanied the 5th US Marines throughout almost two weeks of savage street fighting to retake the Citadel. This was an exceptionally dangerous assignment, in which McCullin was under constant fire. He took some of the most powerful photographs of his career but also experienced, for the first time, the effects of combat stress. This photograph was taken by Nik Wheeler using Don McCullin's camera.
