I heard yesterday that RS is paying him $30,000 each for four stories a year on contract. No wonder he can afford Leicas. . And he has raised $6.5 mil to fund his work on migrations. Lets hope he doesn't have any cloned donkeys painted like zebras crossing the Mexico/US border. : ) Part of the complaint of Salgado's enormous funding ($1mil from Kodak alone) is that it robs other less celebrated documentary shooter of support. donal - -- Donal Philby San Diego http://www.donalphilby.com
