Cutting Up


PHOTOGRAPHER’S JOURNAL: I wasn’t there the day the crane came down, but an i-phone video they showed me the next day, suggests it was done with masterful indelicacy. They cut it loose and dropped it. I already posted a picture of the fork lift they used to move and turn the fallen carcass as Mike cut it apart. Here is the rest of the drama.

Photo journalism at its best, Ted, especially with all those sparks flying. Lucky, lucky you.

Thank you, Ginnie. The blow torch is a wonderfully photographic thing splashing hard light at constantly changing angles as Mike cuts.
