So the eyes. My job is to bring what I am seeing to the viewer. McCullin said he photographed what to others was in too poor taste. He took pictures. Those pictures are so strong they don't allow the viewer the luxury of blinking.
Eyes force people to connect.
The camera as boundary between us and the real world, and then the editing and the printing. I believe to take pictures you have to be involved on some level, not insulated. Feeling the camera offers a degree of safety is not the same as being divorced from the subject. If that was the case the photos wouldn't look as they do. No one has forced us into these situations, unordinary for the rank and file citizen.
