54. When I took the Mali assignment a month ago,
I knew it would be challenging. I wondered
how, in an asymmetrical war (as the French
brass likes to call it), I would photograph a
pick-up full of Jihadists being taken out by a
smart bomb dropped from a Mirage fighter jet
in the middle of the desert. Remember rule
number one in photography: be there!
