The homework for this week's photo-class is 'shock me/horror'.
These pictures pay homage to the work of Arthur Fellig, better known as Weegee, who was an American newspaper photographer working in the 1930s to the 1950s. He's best remembered for his garishly flash-lit crime scene pictures.
I used black and white settings on my camera, pushed to the extreme for maximum contrast. The post-production work followed a similar line to bring out a film noir feel, exploring moods of pessimism, fatalism, and menace.
