The Downward Spiral

Paolo Pellegrin

"During the few days that I spent on Wall Street, exactly one week after its worst days since 1929, a sense of shock and stupor pervaded the atmosphere as the exchanges continued to oscillate from the very negative to the barely positive."

this was put together really well. i've often tried to document the activity that takes place on the floor with little success. Cheers to all those involved with this essay and it's production.

Well, what can I really say? Pellegrin himself is a genre, I say. Wonderful work, really!

Non abbastanza drammatico

Impressive essay! The style reminds me a bit of Max Payne Game - they had these excerpt of his life done in comic strips style inserted in between the game levels. Could I ask the photographer: what program did he use to technically produce such an essay/slideshow? Thank you.

Very interesting video clip with impressing photographs. Pellegrin captured very well the astonished faces of the brokers. Best regards from Germany. Comments on my photographs would be very much appreciated. Florian Dirks
