SHOT- Kathy Shorr.

• New York photographer Kathy Shorr. 
• http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-39671754
• Shorr's aim was to photograph survivors of shooting and show there heroics.
• 'Everbody can be shot.' 
• Some of the subjects where shot in :
• The gym
• shopping centre.
• home.
• cinemas
• church
• She agrees that it is a dark subject but ' there is an incredible amount of light.'
• The subjects wanted to be photographed in oder to help others.
• Shorr doesn't want to see the subjects or anyone who has been shot and lives as victims , they are survivors. And there action of getting up and carrying on are heroic.
• I find the patterns of the scars fascinating , they dose seem to be an element of beauty to the scaring on individuals stomach. However they are large , and  some of the other injures create by the shot are life effecting ,at the same time they must be a constant reminder to the surviour of what happened, but this makes it all the more penitent and impactful.
