Powerful Pictures

This is really touching and powerful stuff.

At the end of last summer, photographer Devin Mitchell started traveling around the United States documenting the diverse lives of veterans through semi-surreal portraits for his senior thesis project.

He would connect with the vets, go into their homes, and let them choose their props, costumes, poses, and who would be featured with them in the photos, the newest of which depict life with post-traumatic stress disorder, or PTSD.

Sad to see this going on.

Revealing, thought provoking and disturbing.

Indeed. Also, to all of those who served & active military across the country and on this board, thank you for your service. It is sincerely appreciated.

I saw a TV interview with Devin Mitchell a couple weeks ago where he talked about this project and how he was moved to take it on. I have to echo Mel's statement. You want to look, and look away at the same time. Very moving, very artistic, uplifting and at the same time, sad.
