Fantastic photos, thanks. I love that Life / Magnum style of humanist 
photography, and the composition of the individual shots, the b&w tonality etc. 
are all wonderful. And it's very timely. 

It would be nice to see them laid out on a page with text. One of the lost arts 
is laying out a photo essay as a set on a double-page spread, making different 
pictures work together so that the whole is greater than the sum of the parts. 
I have a book of great Life photo essays, and the layouts are really important.

On the other hand, the paper prints don't have the ringing beauty of the 
back-lit digital versions.
