We will present three additional Legends Online features this year, each highlighting the careers and work of two great photographers in different genres of the craft.

In this edition, we present a pairing of two of the worlds most highly regarded photojournalists: one who covers the world of sports, and the other who reports on human conflicts around the globe. Seemingly unrelated in their subject matter, war photographer Christopher Morris and sports shooter Heinz Kluetmeier reveal the common bond that ties them together: the desire to capture forever the precise moment.

From the Olympics in Nagano to the Big Top of the Ringling Brothers Circus, Kluetmeier has always gone for the big moment, the moment of high anxiety which involves high production values.

In global hotspots like Bosnia and Angola, Morris goes for the moment in an equally rigorous manner, but lives his life in a manner as dangerous as his subjects.
