War photojournalism/PT.2

Robbert Capa;

Robert Capa born October 22nd 1913 is classed as one of the worlds best war photojournalist.
He was always right in the action, risking his life in order to capture images that people at home, away from war will not ever see. His photography was not a plea for fame and heroism, but his motive was to capture images of people in war that features the pure brutality of the scenario.
Capa used the Leica camera to capture reality of the surroundings.
Robbert was well known for risking his life, standing in the centre of gunfire and explosions in order to grasp images of the real story. Capa's fame came from images of the Vietnam War, which led to his death in May, 1954. Not only was Capa great at taking pictures, but for what he did, he was well known to be one of the best photojournalists of all time.
Capa believed that it's good to get close, but it's even better to get closer. Showing his nature towards the war and his strong beliefs to portray the true circumstances that are occuring day in and day out.

Tony Vaccaro;

Tony was a well known war photographer, With the camera "always around the neck" he photographed everything and anything he could in the situation he was facing. Tony is also known as Michael A. Vaccaro, But unlike Capa, Tony was issued with an Army Issue camera called the 'SPeed Graphic' Which was a camera that involved a huge amount of work in order to capture an image, ruining the aspiration to capture the decisive moments of war. Vaccaro, unlike Capa was an actualy soilder, due to him having a standard issue camera. Later on in his career, he got hold of a Argus C3 Camera which is a cheaper equivelent to the Leica camera.
