Martin Parr and Don McCullin are two of the nation's most renowned and celebrated photographers, and so, for a fan like Peter Dench, exhibiting alongside them both at the La Gacilly Photo Festival was "in equal parts exhilarating and surreal".
I guess it perhaps goes with the territory, but this isn't the first time I've seen McCullin described as a man who has evidently been scarred by his many experiences of working in combat zones. As Dench puts it, "[k]arma is pummelling him with a lifetime of guilts and ghosts".
