A car left quietly in a field near Hartsel, Colorado. I shot low so the grass and plants could press into the frame, letting time and landscape do the storytelling.

Worth noticing.

A weathered, rusted car sits partially hidden in tall grass in a rural field near Hartsel, Colorado. Larger plants and trees frame the scene, and the low camera angle emphasizes overgrowth and surface detail on the car’s front quarter.

this was actually a documentary-biography of investigative journalist seymour hersh's career, where he got a lot of things right and yes, a few things wrong (which he admits on film!). this is a journalist WITH ETHICS (surely a newsworthy item these days)

watching the netflix documentary, COVER UP, about the #MyLaiMassacre by the US against innocents in vietnam. considering what is happening with ICE in USA today, this is documentary deeply disturbing
