Don McCullin, of the world's greatest war photographers, will celebrate his 75th birthday this year. In a career spanning more than 50 years, Mr McCullin has covered major conflicts including the Congo, Lebanon, Cambodia and, most famously, Vietnam.

To mark the occasion, the Imperial War Museum North, Manchester, is mounting the largest exhibition of his work ever seen in the UK.

Arts correspondent Rebecca Jones took a look at his works.
