“Everyone has a point of view. Some people call it style, but what we’re really talking about is the guts of a photograph. When you trust your point of view, that’s when you start taking pictures.”
✨ On her birthday, here are ten of Annie Leibovitz’s remarkable portraits of Marvin Gaye, Bette Midler, Meryl Streep, Whoopi Goldberg, Anjelica Huston, Ella Fitzgerald, Mick Jagger, Michael Jordan, Cate Blanchett, and Serena Williams. ✨
Total number of confirmed kills: 775. Photo taken in Germany, May 4, 1945.
And this hasn’t been made into a movie or mini series?
The cool thing is, there’s still one person missing: Lyudmila Pavlichenko.
She was one of the deadliest snipers of World War II, and is regarded as one of the deadliest snipers of all time. Over the course of one year (June 1941-June 1942) she racked up a count of 309 kills, 36 of which were enemy snipers. Her prescence in the picture alone would have brought the total number of kills from 755 to 1064.
