Neither am I anymore. I don't follow it regularily but IMHO  
Barbey's view of Morocco was a recent high point. Superb  
composition, color elements in balance, timing etc etc. But then  
again he is not in NG but in Magnum. BTW anyone know about his  
working habits, equipment, film used and such? Some of the images  
had a "glow" that made me wonder...
