“1981 I was 26 years old and still a student of photography and walking through Belfast taking pictures. I also went several times to Sinn Féin to get information. I was also there the day before the funeral and carefully asked if there was a possibility to go to Derry and take photos there. They got me a seat on a bus. In Derry, I just go with the others. Nobody said anything to me that I shouldn’t take pictures. So, I did it.”
