  Daniel Shea is a photographer I found when blogging on tumblr, I didn’t particularly take much notice instantly but after looking at this website I became a little bit obsessed with his project he shot in Ohio concerning the study of the social and political institutions surrounding these practices he carries on study further into the cultural implications this sort of coal collections has caused. He included a PDF file with this images explaining what exactly he wanted to do and this made my understanding of the work a lot more in depth and precise. His social documenting techniques fascinate me and I really love his work in Ohio.
