Just got a nice copy of Life Magazine, April 16, 1965, my reason being to take a look again at the Photo Essay by Larry Burrows on "One Ride with Yankee Papa 13". IMHO it is one of the most effective Photo Essays ever published (full range of emotion, informative, and begging the question then as it should be now, "Good copters (read military equipment), but bum tactics?" and again IMHO represents a lost art/skill.
Would like to hear what others view as the most effective Photo Essays they have ever come across and, have we lost the ability to do this as photographers? Yes, we do single shots well, yes, we do portfolios well, yes, we see fine examples of books, but the photo essay per se???? Would like to hear some thoughts.
