German Ursula Meissner has been working for many decades as a photographer in war zones, where, among other things, she has stood out in the Kosovo war.

According to her, the war itself is very tragic, so there is no need for scenarios.

"A photo is a good photo, if it arouses emotions. When I was in Kosovo, I photographed a girl's face. The little girl had two days and two sleepless nights walking through the many mountains - all to escape danger. "With this photo, all the pain of Kosovo Albanians could be described," says Meissner in her last interview for "Web.de".

The little Albanian girl did not even have the strength to cry.

She further shows that this photo had touched many people, even though no "blood and weapons" were seen, as human pain can be shown even without these elements.

"But these photos rarely succeed," she says
