Just watched an article about Sefton Samuel's this evening on BBC - The Culture Show. Not heard of him before, some interesting photojournalism images, from a historical perspective. Images of notoriety, footballer, George Best, painter, LS Lowry and many other well known faces.

Having writen that, it's also plain to see that unless access is restored to today's shooters, the same old views are going to crop up, time after time, with only the faces changing. Odd that an industry that depends so much on contact and fans can be so restrictive of allowing ease of shooting to its professionals.
