He began the war as a promising 27-year-old photojournalist and provided some of the most vivid coverage of the conflict for The New York Times. But it’s not his personal successes that stick with Mr. Denton — it’s the victims he photographed, and the deaths of several colleagues, especially his friend Chris Hondros.
