Don McCullin has curated his pick of the National Media Museum's photography collection, for a freely-accessible online flickr gallery. You can also access images showing McCullin at work making the selection.
The photographer is best-known for his reportage but his next book features archaelogical sites around Egypt, and his selection of images reflects that. McCullin's own work is currently on show at the NMM - Don McCullin: In England reflects Britain from the 1950s to the present day, and is open until 27 September.
