“A terrific still photograph remains one of the most powerful weapons that is around – it is storytelling with a camera – a box with a hole in it that allows you to tell stories which are as old as time. If you’re good, curious and you tell them in a unique way or the best way you can, people will always want to see them or know about things. Photojournalism will be around forever.” Tom Stoddart (1953-2021)
“Tom was the photographer’s photographer. His pictures from conflicts, catastrophes and humanitarian crises around the world spoke for themselves; with a compassionate eye and a click, Tom captured the moment that told the story. His pictures were technically brilliant, emotionally charged and worth at least the thousand words reporters wrote to accompany them. His images from Sarajevo, the Berlin Wall, Iraq, Palestine, Sri Lanka and other global hotspots spoke of his courage and the suffering of those in intolerable situations and conditions.” Kim Willsher – L’Oeil de la Photographie
