Rusty Shipwreck in Liberia

"A fisherman passes a shipwreck near the port of Greenville. In the mid 1990s, a vessel arrived carrying an aid cargo of rice and fuel. The captain and crew left the ship when it developed a problem and was in danger of sinking. They returned the next day to find that the whole cargo had disappeared and the ship had been ravaged".

Photo taken by Tim Hetherington, who has been documenting life in Liberia for more than six years and has published a book "Liberia: An Uncivil War" (2004)... See more photographs here.

"Hetherington was killed while covering the front lines in the besieged city of Misrata, Libya, during the 2011 Libyan civil war. There appeared to be uncertainty whether he was killed by a mortar shell or an RPG round. The same attack also killed photographer Chris Hondros and gravely wounded photographer Guy Martin. A source said that the group was traveling with rebel fighters." source
