More Burtynsky, Kenna photography
Edward Burtynsky photographs in higher resolution than on his official site - mentioned here back in June - can be found on his Stanford University website where a Flash interface provides a zoom function. Now image these photos as 40 x 50 inches prints. The shipwrecking series is my favourite, and you should not miss Rolf Nobel's series on this subject, either. Click on Fotografie, then Abwrackwerft. Seacoalers is nice, too.
