Brian Brake, New Zealand’s internationally acclaimed Magnum photographer, discusses his Monsoon series for Life magazine and the difficulty of photographing rain. He also talks about the craft of photography: “Photography is a mixture of craft, profession and art ... You are only as good as your last photograph.”

A repeat, upon his death, of the television documentary “A Master Of Light - The Life and Work of Brian Brake Photographer’. It was originally broadcast, earlier the same year, in the “Inspirations” series.
