Real journalism is not dead, thank you for showing us great work in an unusual part of the world.
Yes, I agree with Albert’s comment above. Thank You for sharing your great work!
Great insights. Thanks
Beautifully observed work with a warm commentary. Thanks, great stuff Seamus.
@John Easterby, oh yahhhhhhhhhhhhh
Nice work. Great to hear the Irish accent!
One of my favorite photographers, thanks so much for sharing this.
Wonderful take.
Very nice indeed. As a Russian I’m quite glad he didn’t follow the overwalked path of stereotypical “matrioshkas bears vodka lenin busts” type of photographs. Well, almost.
This is one of the things I really love about the Internet – the ability to look at great photos and to hear some behind the scenes experience. Thank you!
As someone who has been there & knows the language (but not Russian, like Mitja), I think he’s done pretty well. Interesting observations, and different than most of the ones I see from westerners. His observation of China (in that region) was spot-on, and you can really see his growth.
On the other hand, there’s so much more to that region, it looks like he missed a huge amount, too…
Good job Rob: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=Seamus+Murphy
I was fortunate enough to see some of these photos in an exhibition at the Host gallery in London recently; the prints were stunning and it’s great to hear a little of the back-story here.
