A Different Kind of Photography


I came across photographer Chris Jordan and was fascinated by his work.  He goes into the deeper side of life and shows the vast and bizarre measures of our society.  The above photo was part of his series called Running with Numbers which looks at American culture through the austere lens of statistics.  This photo of Snoopy and Charlie Brown depicts ten thousand dog and cat collars, which is equal to the average number of unwanted dogs and cats euthanized every day.  It was assembled by thousands of other photographs.
