I was reminded that it’s been a year since I made one of my favorite photos on the border (shown first) so I figured I’d share some more favorites I’ve made over the years.
The last is a photo from when BP held migrants in an outdoor detention camp under Trump in 2019. Arguably only for the optics.

Submitted my Camino de los Muertos project to the NYT portfolio review with minutes to spare.
To see more of my ongoing work photographing the record number of migrants dying outside of El Paso, head on over to my website at www.justinmhamel.com/caminomuertos

This is the first thing I've seen that makes BS worth sticking around for.
Anyway…
Here’s a visualization of all the curse words being used on Bluesky in real time.
Each word is a cute fluffy little profane cloud.
It’s oddly soothing.

Four years ago I met the family of Sylvia Garcia praying for her outside of her ICU room. Down the hall, Jose Garcia's daughter was taking care of her intubated father. He passed away from Covid a month later.
I'm weary of an incoming administration who doesn't take public health seriously.

Is there a funny people list that someone’s made? The problem with living in a world of journalists is that my internet becomes a depressing hell hole in no time at all.
Where can I mindlessly scroll without thinking?

It’s damning how we’re framing mass deportations by saying “how will our country ever survive without exploitable labor” and not “this will rip millions of families apart, how could we do this to them?”
This country doesn’t view immigrants as people, it views them as numbers and labor.

Years ago, when I bought that first photo, I had no idea who Graciela Iturbide was or how she worked. I just knew I’d never seen an image like that before.
