fucking kiddos using film burn effects on everything.

Yeah it was worth it unfortunately she had to lose her life to actually show the risk that current war photographers/videographers put themselves into to get the imagery that people share all over the world. Her OIC (officer in charge) fought for two years to get these images released.

>>3068261
>current war photographers/videographers
Fuck off. She was a propagandist. She wasn't some civvy embedded with a unit that got fucked, she was a soldier.

>>3068271
Yeah, that's their fkin job and they do a much better job than shitty civilians trying to be embedded. Most civilian content is trash anyways.

>propagandist
You're thinking of IO (information operations), you fucking dullard

>>3068272
>You're thinking of IO (information operations), you fucking dullard
Nope. I'm thinking of people in the exact same MOS as she. I'm curious, have you ever gone through the military editing process? I was a 37F and worked extensively with the various 25 series. Very little of what you see out of them is even close to being representative of the truth.

>>3068274
I do this for a living in the Marines, so yes, indeed, I'm quite aware of the field. You were probably shit and got tasked with covering ceremonies

>>3068275
>quite aware of the field
Obviously not because you're pretending that there's even the pretension of their work not serving the mission and only the mission.

>covering ceremonies
37F, covering ceremonies, gotcha.

>>3068278
Really don't give a shit about the Army, esp. since their comcam and PA are in complete disarray. Plus, since you're Psyops, then you should stop being disingenuous with the PA side. Stay mad, chuck boy, that you don't know much about COMCAM/PA

>>3068278
Plus you should be tracking that MISO activities take place overseas where the product can't reach back to the United States and they VI works in conjunction IO/PSYOPS.

>>3068282
I will accept that I've not been in in a while and things have changed, but I'm most definitely not being disingenuous.
>>3068287
Who exactly do you think gets seconded to PA stuff when there's a need? It's all the same process, just with different spins. The training and processes beyond the SOF crap we did that PA doesn't do is identical. It's like how there's only a gnat's nuthair worth of difference between Civil Affairs and PSYOP (the AITs are conducted together and only split for the last half of the classroom work and final FTX).

Irrespective of all of that, I think you're taking the wrong point from my initial post. It wasn't that she's lesser for being military. It's that it's entirely fucked to compare civilians who, at least when with American forces, are coddled to hell and back, to an actual military serviceman. I do still stand by the point that any and all media produced by the military is nothing but propaganda (which would be stupid if it weren't) and I will gladly admit that the military throws different names on differently targeted activities to skirt around that whole "it's illegal to propagandize Americans", so I can't help but think if you honestly believe you and those in similar roles to you are serving anything but the mission, then you're hopelessly naive.

How fast do you think she was shooting to be able to snag the first pic and then this? Must've just impulsively held down the shutter button, yeah?

>>3068220
Can't believe they cropped the SONY gloves in the bottom left corner in this version, best part of the shot tbqhfam

What a fuckin retard. Should have been shooting with a 200mm or 300mm lens. Going full consumerist whore wide angle close up was asking for it. Instant karma for an army instagram whore.

Both of these are timeless already, just the movement and colours and positions speak so many good things. It's good that they are clear and therefore very moving.

Do we know which camera she used? Rip also

fuck american military and fuck frumpf.

This picture was taken by the AFGHAN photographer, who was also taking pictures there.

>>3069508
If you need a Marine to explain this to you, then you're just as retarded as they are.

You're not even aware that you're a propagandaist.

How fucking sad.
