Interview with Nick Ut, the Photojournalist Who Shot the Iconic “Napalm Girl” Photo

https://petapixel.com …iconic-photo-napalm-girl/

Remember Kevin Carter and his picture of the bird waiting to eat the little child. That’s why he killed himself. For the napalmed girl, if I didn’t help her and she died, I would have killed myself too.

That’s the job. People need to learn.

Also, remember that forty years ago, combat photographers carried many heavy cameras, almost like a hundred rolls of film. Negative, black and white, slide film… all in a big bag.

Much more in the article...Mr. Ut retired after 51 years with AP.

Great article.

Thanks for posting the link.

Rick,

Same here... thank you for posting that article. I lived through that time so it brought back memories.
