I've noticed a couple people's work around the issue of guns coming out lately, which correlates quite nicely in light of a
recent event. I'm sure there is plenty more, here are two that I've found in the last couple days.
Armed America by
Kyle Cassidy is a look at the type of people who own guns and their reasons for having guns. Although I don't feel the photos themselves are anything special, I think its a great idea and just goes to show the wide array of gun owners and some of the common reason for gun ownership.
------------------
Another set, in the form of a lecture-like
slide show, on guns is by
Magnum photographer
Philip Jones Griffiths. Rather than a new series of work it's a collection of images that deal with guns that he has taken over the years, with a
voice over of him talking about his opinion on guns.
You can find it right here.
