Steve McCurry's One-Minute Masterclass | Photography. If you want the best advice you go to an expert. Steve McCurry's photojournalism career began with his coverage of the Soviet war in Afghanistan where he smuggled his film out of the country by sewing it into his clothes.

So we decided to sit him down and pick his brains on how to get a great picture.
