Magnum Photos Feature: Ghost Town by Thomas Dworzak

Magnum In Motion has launched a new multimedia essay today showing photographs Thomas Dworzak took on a TIME assignment of the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans.
In my opinion "Ghost Town" is the best feature we did so far. The other features, which can be found here, have been good as well but this one is, at least for me, the most interesting one. The photographs just seem to work together with his comments so well. And Thomas Dworzak talks as he usually does. He is honest and tells the viewer what he thinks. He is talking about the people down there, about the conditions he worked in and about the inadequate response to the tragedy of the government. It's for sure a rather insightful essay well worth viewing.
Don't forget to plug your earphones in or turn on your speakers. Otherwise it's not even half as interesting as it is with the audio.
Any comments/feedback are desired. Be it positive or negative ones!
