I really admire photojournalists that can live in such dangerous conditions and do such an emotionally draining and difficult job - RIP to them both...

@ashleyjwilson Thanks for the link to the CNN article.

Here is a link to a tribute to Tim Hethington on Human Rights Watch, which in turn has links to some of his work. Our sympathy to their families and friends.
