‘I shoot for the common man’: the photographs of Danish Siddiqui

The photojournalist Danish Siddiqui was shot dead last week

while documenting the Taliban offensive in Afghanistan.

His award-winning work for Reuters

spanned some of the world’s most era-defining crises.

He said: ‘I shoot for the common man

who wants to see and feel a story

from a place where he can’t be present himself.’

Siddiqui leaves behind his wife, Rike, and two children.

And a breathtaking body of work

‘Mother, When Will You Come?’: The Covid Orphans of India

 

Thousands of children lost their parents

during a calamitous wave of infections.

While the government is vowing to help them,

many face the risk of neglect and exploitation when the attention fades.
