There was an amazing color photo of a bunch of eight to twelve year old heroin addicts in a squat that i saw at the Czech Press Photo exhibition in prague in January that was one of the best photos i've ever seen, but i never got the guy's name and i've not been able to find it since. Most annoying.

there's a documentary on next tuesday on RTE 1, about an irish photographer called fergus bourke.
there's a photo of his (can't find it online) taken in the 70s of a bunch of lads in a field, leaning against cortinas and beetles, in cheap looking suits, watching two lads roll around in the grass bating the shite out of each other, and it's one of the best photos i've ever seen.

i will never tire of this photo - i like the fact that every time I look at it, now matter how shit i may be feeling that day, it gives me a happy little tinge.
