The Shot by Gary Ramage
Requirements: ePUB Reader, 3.49 mb
Overview: The heart-stoppingly adrenalin-charged – and often dangerous – life and times of Australian war photographer, Gary Ramage. He goes where the troops go – but with a camera, not a gun.
As Australia’s premier war photographer – and as a former soldier – Gary Ramage has been in and out of just about every conflict zone that Australia has ever been involved in. He’s been embedded with troops, lived, eaten and slept alongside them. When fire fights happen, he’s been there. When rockets fall, he’s been there. When the medic on a chopper screams at him to put his camera down and help him to CPR on a wounded soldier, he’s done that. From photographing mass graves in Kosovo, to being in East Timor when SAS troops were ambushed, to sleeping under the stars on patrol with Aussie soldiers in Afghanistan, he’s been there.
It takes special grit to be a war photographer – it’s an extreme and dangerous job. At least 25 journalists / photojournalists have been killed in Afghanistan alone since 2001. Journalists, cameramen, photographers – they’ve all been captured, tortured and executed. Risk comes with the territory.
This is a high adrenalin, sometimes moving, sometimes laugh-out-loud funny, entirely gripping story of a man who’s living an extraordinary life, documenting some of the most confronting and moving moments in international conflicts and our recent history. Here is the story behind the pictures.
