Akihiko Okamura had not long left photographing the Vietnam War when he arrived in Northern Ireland in 1968 to explore John F. Kennedy’s ancestral roots. The following year he retuned to Ireland, settling first near Dublin, then Avoca, in County Wicklow. Okamura’s interest in war photography was sparked by a childhood in wartime Tokyo. His pictures of Vietnam appeared in Life magazine in colour in the same 1964 issue as Larry Burrows’ work. These, some of Okamura’s Kodachrome pictures of the Troubles appear in Memories of Others at Photo Museum Ireland and an accompanying book . The post The Troubles In Kodachrome: An Outsider’s View of A Divided Northern Ireland appeared first on Flashbak.
