[Leica] American Photo M8 Review in Iraq

[walt at waltjohnson.com (Walt Johnson)]

One of the advantages in making images rather than telling stories is 
the end result is there for all to see.  . Of course Baghdad is 
dangerous as hell but just making the trip there gets you a campaign 
ribbon, not the Silver Star . I've seen some very strong images come 
from that mess over there but found  Gilbertson's work pretty bland. I'm 
not being detrimental about the courage (or foolhardiness) one must have 
to go in the first place. Still, if you hang it our for bragging rights 
it better measure up.
