He is in San Diego photographing migrants along the US/Mexican border. The 250 display prints are large; say, 16x20 and up. Beautiful quality-superb tonal range-rich grain- a kind of 3 dimensional feel. He is very sincere in questioning the future of the 4/5ths of the world population who live in poverty. They are challenged by what many of us take for granted. His b&w aesthetic amplifies his concern. I treated myself to his book "Workers". Anyone planning a trip to Southern California should visit the exhibit in La Jolla before the end of August. Leica should be proud of its part in sponsoring his efforts.
