Great photojournalism in Denver

If you appreciate great photojournalism, then you should take a look at this flashback feature the Denver Post did on the Anniversary of the fall of Saigon.

All the great images from the conflict are in this collection and a number of outstanding images that haven't been shown in years.

  1. These are truly awesome photos. What really impressed me was how the photographer was able to maintain artistic and technical perfection under such situation. And how did he keep the lens clean?
