Just received a surprise from 1998! A photo by my talented friend Hakob Berberyan of me in Spitak, Armenia, working on the 10th anniversary of the Armenian earthquake. Two Leica M cameras around my neck, a camera bag, a bag of film and a bag of warm clothing as the temperature dipped to minus 25C during the nights. It was a four week shoot involving two trips for AIM magazine (sadly no longer in print). #photojournalism #armenia #UN #Spitak #photojournalist #leica @leicauk @leica_camera
