lection #2: choosing the adequate pipe.
"The photograph ... was taken near the Suez Canal near the crossing point, the Bridgehead on the Egyptian (west side) of the canal on October 17 or 18, probably by my colleague photographer Avraham Vered ... The Kalashnikov ak-47 which I carried on that day I have picked up as a memento and not as a shooting weapon..." micha bar-am, to ess.er by mail
A MAGNUM release of the image bears the following caption:
" WAR STORIES/SMITH Magnum photo (1st of 2)
