i remember someone once criticizing professional photojournalists because they make the world look "too pretty." ...making war scenes elegant, natural disasters awesome, and pain beautiful. but yet, is that not the challenge of the job? can a scene be made more aesthetic while retaining unpleasant truths? these are very ugly things photographed very tastefully. i say bravo.
