James Nachwey has a new photo essay up called "Crime in Middle America."

It's B&W and I'm wondering if it's not film.

I gotta be honest...that was pretty disappointing.

For somebody as good as Nachwey...it looks like he just kinda crapped that photo essay out in one night.

That...and only white cops arresting black thugs. I'm pretty sure Milwaukee has a more diverse crime scene than that.

Oh well...he's still one of my fave. photojournalists on the planet.

I gotta say I agree with JPalmer. Usually Nachtwey is so distinctive. These could have been taken by anybody. But I do agree, these do look like they could possibly be film.
