After watching the show, pouring through my Salgado books, pouring through my HCB books....Guys, I know this is a big like saying to a believing Christian that JC isn't the son of God....But I have come to believe that Salgado is without question a better photographer than HCB...Yes, HCB was there first...and, yes, without HCB it is doubtful there would be a Salgado...but in terms of what Salgado can do with a 35 mm camera and film, both technically and "artistically" - I don't see any comparison...
