I have the utmost respect for these photographers.
Not to forget Reporters
Like reporters from Reporters without borders
Some of them are captured or killed
@@blackferrets820 also not to forget the group doctors without diplomas
i don't
@@abhishek420oviyt what?
The pictures they took will last longer than us.
I’m glad my dad made it out that bullshit war alive and sane
Hahaha Me too mate, my father fought in Iraq
Island_Kermode and abandon the people of Afghanistan?
@@carwyngriffiths whoosh and sure they're just afgans lol
that war was fucking stupid of the US.
Surprisingly my dad came back a little messed me up but he’s over it now
That boy is barely even a man and he is being sent into a war field...
He chose to do this.
He had chosen service afghan had been raging likely years before he joined
Stop pitying that lad. That's the last thing he would want. Exactly this mentality makes the new men such weaklings.
by choice
People back then were aged 16 and 17 and they fought with the sword when weapons weren’t invented. I am not saying he should go at this age but being a man is subjective. A 17 year old can be considered a Man and a 23-25 year old is also a Man
This photo alone shows a whole new story depending on the viewer...
Photo definitely hit me
'tis art.
Glorify genocide
@@bobdigitally obviously didn’t even watch the video, show talks about how she hates typical photos that glorify war, and how hers is more about the humanity that is destroyed by it.
@@bobdigitally bad troll
I could listen to her speak forever
I’ve been an Army photographer for almost 6 years now, it’s been a true dream job!
❤️... I wish I could find my passion
49Q or civilian? (I think thats the MOS)
I would love to see some of your works.
EJ RO28 I’m a 25V at the moment but the mos code is in the process of changing since we are leaving signal.
Trebor Ironwolfe Thank you! On DIVIDShub.net you can see some of my released imagery by searching “Sgt. Kevin Roy” in the search bar to see the photos I’ve contributed. I was the family photographer for Medal of Honor recipient, David Bellavia, so there are a lot of photos from his visit to D.C. on my page!
I'm no feminist, but half the people in this comment section are human garbage. She is a great photographer and captured amazing images.
jason Singh , silly me and I thought wars are horrible and horrendous, but the photographer changed my view about wars , wars are cool and full of humanity specially when ur Holding a puppy , how humane
You're a pig thief
Lol what is wrong with feminism?
@@tess5750 lmfao. I'm not a modern day feminist is a better way to phrase it. Sorry not sorry that someone can a different opinion. I'm not going to argue about it over a RUclips comment section.
I literally just asked a question, ur being a bit emotional 🙄
The look: either or niether of anyone shouldn't be here in war
Your sentence hurt my brain.
I think its so cool to hear an individuals endeavors and explain true passion for what they pursue in thier lives.
Finally a well articulated video. Straight to the point right into it no bullshit ads
Mad respect for photographers like her. Also, that dog is super cute
Nice to see ya again, Avery
I wonder if he got to adopt the dog.. I know some do that
This was an incredible video
This is the *VICE* that I subscribed to.
please continue doing these, i love this format. A photographer explaining their own pictures is amazing
Oh wow. PLEASE more of this sort of content, Vice! I love the human stories that Vice has always told, whether it's first wave gritty with David Choe, or the highlights of modern life that y'all have done lately. Fantastic reporting, most of the time. I appreciate that Vice still exists, for those of us who used to save up our allowance for the publication every month!
Wow! The way she gives her photographs meaning is incredibly, opened my eyes to things i overlooked.
Super impressed. I never thought the fringes could be so touching!
Thanks for the vid
Love your shots and the stories behind them Ali!
I loved this. These photos really moved me. Alison is awesome, and I loved listening to what she had to say about her work
Old ass men barking orders and young men dying..
It's called discipline
saikat bag its called being a sucker
So we should just let the Taliban take over Afghanistan?
Snowwflake
COMMUNIST KERMIT you could aid Afghanistan and not send our soldiers to die. I don’t know why that was never a solution.
Great images and story!
Photography is a form of record-keeping for the generations that arrive after we leave; much like the cave paintings by our early ancestors, or the ancient Egyptians and their hieroglyphics. There is something innately important about preserving our past and giving it immortality. As a Christian, I always loved the expression "His Story [history]", but it is as much "Her Story" as well.
I love this format! I'd like more of this. :)
That Portrait of the soldier & the dog is just perfect in all ways , very deep ...
amazing work
The pic of the boy and the dog is so beautiful
Leave it to the expert journalism of Vice to put Ilford borders on a color image
leicanoct there plenty of photographers that did shoot film in the very yearly days of the Afghanistan and Iraq wars.
@leicanoct sorry for being pendantic but most professional photographers would have shot film up until the mid 2000s, or at least a hybrid between film and digital. There were no digital cameras that produced acceptable images in the 90s. The only 'digital' cameras until the late 90s were cameras that operated in a similar manner to a vcr and they were used only by news papers.
@leicanoct 2.7mp is still doesn't compare to 35mm film. It's acceptable for press coverage and breaking news, but I not for documentation. When did you stop using the your canon and what was your field of work, if you don't mind me asking (just curious).
@leicanoct Was convenience the driving factor or was digital just the zeitgeist at the time? The cost of film would surely have been cheaper, considering how expensive memory and even the digital bodies were at the time.
was just about to say that lmao
2 great photos! Congrats
Great videos keep it up
Such a really profound explanation of beautiful shots with deep reflection and meaning. Thanks for sharing.
boy and his dog vibe in that photo
Omg I love this. She’s very passionate. Passion makes great things and great experiences.
You are who I aspire to be like. So much courage and respect for you Ali. Thank you for showing the war through a lens.
Amazing content, this is gold
Thanks for the good content vice! It’s been what? 6 years now?!
Awesome! Well done Ali!
0:39 Ilford hp5 plus and its a color photo xD
And the "proof sheet" is just crops of the same moment.💀
@@kemalettinsrt still wanting Vice to be old Vice. No bs
I know right, also the images were so clearly going to be digital from the beginning, I don't know why they bothered pretending. I guess it's a good intro but us film photography peeps are not buying it.
haha was searching for this comment ! hp5 tonezz be like..
Hahaha was wondering if anyone else would notice that!
Amazing work keep it up
What an awesome voice, love it!
Brummie accent.
why is the contact strip in color if the film info strip says hp5 plus???
she has a very nice and calming presence
I was literally thinking about this yesterday. I was like hmm I wonder if you can still go out and photograph in the military?
This video reminds me of the poem ‘War Photographer’ by Carol Ann Duffy
A true artist, and inspiration..
Brilliant.
More please.
This picture literally made me tear up
best vice series
Great story! What an incredible Woman. I can relate to her purpose of work - it's about people first, things after.
Great story and video. Thank you!!
But... I can’t figure out if her shirt is buttoned wrong intentionally or is this “User Error?” Lol
Did anyone else notice?
I can tell you firsthand that all of us still have humanity and hearts in our bodies. War makes you have to be a callous person. We all still have love in our hearts and hope others can understand that versus the wars as a whole. We are still your neighbors and care, but remember we all have felt and seen things that change your perspective.
A rare glimpse of Vice being Vice
I honestly like this photo but you sense a lot from this photo to the point it’s making me emotional while writing this comment
This is sooo awesome
Can you guys make this an hour long?!
The dog boy is incredibly beautiful.
Need more photographer's and people who document in general. Next time make it way longer tho !
Photography is a art form unlike anything else. So many emotions evolved.
Nice job man
She's amazing. She shows underneath all the fighting is humanity.
Anybody know what suspension system that kid has on his helmet? Looks comfortable.
The war is old enough to go to war 😩
Good maybe it will end itself.
Just imagine a mom watching RUclips Nd she sees her boy in the thumbnail of the video ☹️💔
The lad on the thumbnail is your son? That picture is beautiful, I can’t get over it. Hope he’s doing well.
@@joanne7163
Wha
Thankyou for your SERVICE GOD BLESS YOU 💎🇬🇧💎
I visited her official website and saw more of her work. She is brilliant!!!
Damn...shes deep
She's a photographer.. 😁
I'm really impressed with the ladies narrative. And she sounds like she's from South Birmingham. I would say Solihull or Stratford upon Avon
I love war journalism, vice is getting back on track with the great content 💖
"This is what winning looks like" is a Ben Anderson piece that got me into Vice. One of the best I've ever seen anywhere.
You should check Ross Kemp out
Nice photos.
Love this not gon lie 🔥
Brothers in Arms💪🏽✊🏼 Warriors by heart.
icredible video
Mad respect
I wish all humans were as reflected as the photographer!
How courageous she is!
It would be nice if the photos were in the bio
Anyone know the gloves he is wearing?
that was magnificent
Impressive photographer. 👍
It's nice to see Vice going back to their roots of hard hitting journalism instead of reporting things like - is this brand of coffee homophobic?
If you don't like it don't watch it.
True2
Yeah, now its "war is sexist."
@@jasmineali5699 ❄️
I'm a photographer myself. I absolutely loved the first photo.
More photography videos like this
Did anyone else from the fountain pen community notice the Kaweco Sport all throughout the video??
These developing news videos make me want to become a photojournalist
I love this.
Absolutely beautiful
Says in the description she's recalling photographing wars in the middle east. Afghanistan isn't in ME
We are miss you foreigners force 😢 . Love you ❣❣✌
It would be groundbreaking if Vice covered the Uyghurs in Xinjiang.
they have
They did, even got footage inside a camp.
She’s a really good photographer
Me at 25 seeing that first photo:
He’s just a kid, no older than my son
I've seen worse photography of the vietnam war. Found them buried underground on an Apple Valley, California pistachio tree grove. Haunting images, for sure.
Really?! Did you keep the photos?! That’s amazing
Can we see them
share them please
We need to see
Please share
Interesting
first of all I LOVE ❤️ HER ART! these photographs are amazing♥️😎👍🏼& second WHY ARE YOU PPL ARGUING & FIGHTING ON SUCH A BEAUTIFUL VIDEO! this woman is a true artist! she has captured something unique & beautiful in her work. so inspiring! i need to find her work is all i am 💭 thinking about! appreciate it don’t depreciate it by arguing & making it sad. this warmed my heart ♥️ it showed something wonderful in a rather not so wonderful situation these folks were in. i respect ✊🏼 her for her 👁 eye! she got a different prospective. WOWMAZED 👍🏼😎👍🏼
She was not prepared for a interview but fire shots
Her photographs are technically very well done, her subjects beautiful and I enjoy looking at them, I watched her masterclass and it was interesting and fun-so never any shade on her for celebrity photos-I wouldn’t want to buy/own any of them.
A portrait that I consider worth having is Alison Baskerville’s Ross and Sharpie (Afghanistan, 2011) that’s a beautiful photograph of a young soldier and dog. Anyone interested check her out on Vice her on RUclips.
Photos with terror amd hope.... Amazing
Vice did good today
So much respect for these people. Without them we would never even come close to having a eye into what war is really like.
I love her soothing voice. Women with british accents are the best
