Found this on the Ross Kemp part of Sky One's website. Thought it a good listen.

Very good.

Woud be great to get that close to the action with a camera.

I would like to see the more upclose and personal photos he has taken during his tour. Shame we will never see them..

The photos are very close and personal and very good.

I was meaning from a war point of view, The press office will release his photos they wont show anything that actually dipicts the realism of war. i.e gsw or the aftermath of the mine field with 9 casualties.(im not looking for gore pictures)

Nothing meant by this I just like seeing both sides of the coin.

If you really wanted to see gruesome war pictures, there are websites and other sources on the internet that are very readily accessible if you know where to look. I have seen them, albeit unintentionally, and it's really not very nice. I think the photos in the link show quite enough of the terror for me!

War is a terrible thing with no winners, i really like to see war photography especially the two great wars. Wish it never happened but the camera can capture for prosperity.

Really like the one where the soldiers are crouching down, fingers in their ears. The 'tog then says, to get the shot, he was standing and couldn't put his fingers in his ears as he wanted to get that shot. Dedication or what?!
