Beautiful Black and White Photography
In one 60-hour span in July, for instance, the Bello Monte morgue overflowed with the corpses of 49 murder victims. Homicides nationwide surged almost 31 percent in the first quarter to 4,659, according to the Interior Ministry. No wonder Caraqueños grimly joke about studies of violence that rank their city as deadlier than Baghdad.
“I had worked much in the Middle East and I was fed up and I was longing to work in a place where there was music, beer and even pretty girls to brighten the scenery,” Mr. Anderson said from his home in Brooklyn. “It could have been any place.”
The book’s name refers to a domed government building like one here in the old center built by Antonio Guzmán Blanco, a 19th-century despot.

An excerpt has been shortlisted for the Prix Pictet, an environmental photography prize.

What you see on this site are high-resolution photographs of liquids in motion, captured with high-speed flash photography. I use Photoshop to clean up the background, balance the color and tidy up a bit. I don’t alter the shapes or composition. What you see is what nature provided. (One exception: the lips in “Big Wet One Red” were crying for red lipstick, which Photoshop provided.)
