i just looked at the first shot...can't look at the rest. I appreciate new ideas and what the photographer is doing - - but i personally can't look......watched someone jump to their death earlier this year...so yeah....it hits a nerve with me.
I could see where some of this would be upsetting to people. I'd rather not remember the images of people jumping from the towers on 9/11, but taken in the context in which it was intended this are very clever.
Whoa, above and beyond for your art; its like Jackass meets 365! I can see how the use of the suit might be considered a bit near the mark, but the shots are really interesting in their own right. I'd really like to see what happened when he went off the edge of the bridge.....
Stunning and original - love this, I cannot for the life of me even begin to understand why he'd receive hate mail - only one could loosely be interpreted to represent 9/11.
