I wanted to rush this into availability while the emotional wounds surrounding the issue were still fresh, so I didn't put much effort into figuring out an optimal compression scheme for it. Sorry about that, I'll try and deal with the matter tomorrow and make it more user friendly if I can. I usually use Quicktime to make a nice small Slideshow from the stills, but this one kept crashing Quicktime for some reason. I do like to focus on images at events like this that are not the pictures one usually sees and that the hundreds of other pro and amateur photographers who were there are most likely to take. I figure that they will do the job of capturing the typical stock imagery that makes the newspaper front pages, leaving me to deal with more subtle and complex relationships among the various conflicting agendas: the protesters, media, cops, bystanders, residents, etc. Which is not to say that I don't have my own up-front point of view that I bring to the event, which in this case is firmly anti-death penalty. What a deeply barbaric place we are that this kind of activity still exists in the richest country in the world. It literally turns my stomach whenever we pass through one of these horrific rituals nowadays. Maybe the photos are a way of exorcising my pain, or at least giving it a place to go. m On Dec 13, 2005, at 9:26 PM, Alan Sondheim wrote: > Just want to say these are absolutely amazing photos - I'm not sure why > the files have to be this large - but they're worth waiting for.
