War Photographer The theme of the true horrors of War - links well with Bayonet Charge. While Ted Hughes it is hard to describe the horrors of war, In war photographer the reality of war is seen through the photographs. The issue lies within the idea that people refuse to accept the reality of what war is like. "half-formed ghost" - a developing picture. An injured man. May even be half of a memory that may not be fully remembered (link to remains?) Structure of 4 Stanza of 6 Lines (4x6) - Tries to impose order on the chaotic images of war. These ideas juxtapose each other. This can also link to how, 4x6 is a common photograph size. The controlled and ordered structure of the poem contrasts to the idea of war. The unchanging structure shows how futile the War Photographers efforts are. Nothing changes - each stanza continues the same. "Rural England." - (caesura) separated by the description of the reality of war. It means that we would look at these images of war and be temporarily moved but fail to grasp on the true horrors of war.

Shows that his experiences have caused him to be in position of responsibility (Cyclical structure) starts with leaving from war, and entering a new war some. Links to the idea of fate/ futility; there is no escape. STRUCTURE AND THEME JUXTAPOSE EACH OTHER Perceptive Ideas - Also comparing the photographer to a "priest preparing to intone a mass" may suggest how he is trying to spread something which is hard to believe. To citizens, it is hard to understand the harsh reality of war without experiencing it akin to Christians trying to understand the nature of God (as he is transcendent), even with help of a representative of God.
