A photographer's journey below the border
"When I arrived in Juarez, within an hour, over the police scanners, a body has been found. And maybe 30 minutes later, another body. And then another body. And by the end of the day, it was 10. The next day, 10. The next day, 10." says journalist Jeff Antebi. From what I have read, this is a very dangerous and deadly place. Antebi mentions that you can have a distant family member that did something wrong and the cartels may be out on revenge looking maybe for you to even kill. He especially avoided being out at night because the cartels "own the night." Even the Politicians are "at risk of becoming targets." I personally think this is a horrible situation and something HAS to be done. I don't know what, but it has to.
The picture that I liked is the one where two police officers are carrying what seems like a dead body to the van, down a dirt path, along a town. It seems like this photograph has the rule of balance because the van and part side of the town are on one side and the dirt path and officers are on the other side. I like this picture because it was a good shot, no mergers seem to be sticking out of anywhere and it doesn't seem as violent as the rest of the pictures.
