Shutterbug Friday #7:
Dmitri Baltermants (Part One: The Big Red Army in Action!)
Born in 1912, Dmitri Baltermants was perhaps the most prominent photo-journalist the old Soviet Union (not the happiest place for journalism of any kind) ever produced. In this, the first of two samplings of his work, we join the mighty Red Army on the field of battle during the Second World War . . . which was already in progress.
