Pulitzer Prize-winning photojournalist Horst Faas, who captured several iconic moments during the Vietnam War, died May 10. He was 79.
It was in Vietnam where Faas was severely wounded by a rocket fragment in 1967. A medic and a tank driver helped load him onto a helicopter, where he was dispatched to a medical facility.
“The only decision I made at that time was not to go to Honolulu or New York or anywhere, but to stay in Vietnam,” he said. “One reason being that I had total trust in military surgeons who were dealing with these problems day in, day out. And secondly, I tried to avoid having my legs broken again at the New York head office and being made a photo editor at headquarters, ‘cause that would have ended the great days of photography, eh?” [complete 1997 interview here]](http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lyrlr5ondB1r4oadco1_500.jpg)

So that coffee addiction is good for something afterall!
Use a coffee sleeve as a DIY lens hood when you’re in a pinch. It’ll save your photos from lens flare. (The one here is by Nick Cool.)

And while you’re at it, use a large coffee cup as a snoot. Blammo!
