An actual hero.

I’m talking about Don McCullin, the world’s most celebrated war photographer. But in a harrowingly illustrious sixty-year career, he has proved himself to be so much more than that, both as a photographer and as a human being. All I can say is watch the BBC Four documentary Don McCullin: Looking for England while it’s still on iPlayer. And if you can, go and see his stunning exhibition of photographs at Tate Britain. The words of this song will make more sense than ever.
