We follow on from last week with another dissection of famous photographs and the stories behind them.
Lorna reports on the unique image of Salvador Dali known as Dali Atomicus which has inspired millions of people to jump in photos (perhaps not). The photographer Philippe Halsman behind the image also had a fascinating life!
Then Matt reports on the Migrant Mother, one of the most powerful images of the twentieth century. The photo of a mother and her children living in Depression-era America became a symbol of the hardship of the American people in the 1930s.
We also have quite a serious conversation for once! This time about the motivations behind documentary photography and filmmaking.
