I am also not a fan of the propaganda going through the captions, and the kind of negative way to talk about people who are about to be shot dead or killed. I find there are a couple of interesting images in this set, but treatment and composition lacks punch imho. . 

The GoPro is interesting, it shows how war has become a total business, with side products such as the GoPro etc, and it shows how war had become also a “show” for many, such as seeing the footage, analysis is one thing, but I believe it’s not only that… That is my personal opinion, and yes I have been in the army as mandatory in my country, and I will agree to disagree with whoever disagrees with me.

Is it from the software correction?

After seeing this [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eo61t5fH6Qw] video detailing Pentax’s weather sealing, I’m curious what he’s using for a camera set up while embedded.

The link at the end of the article to BusinessInsider has about 40 more images that Geoffrey Ingersoll shared. Extremely interesting to get a first hand view.
