- I just found Daniel Shea's work after he left a comment on my Top 10 Photo Books of '08 post. These images are from his series Removing Mountains where he explores the coal-mining industry in Appalachia, "What began as an interest in the modern coal mining process known as mountaintop removal, quickly evolved into an extensive survey of the social, political, and perhaps most importantly, cultural implications of extracting coal from Appalachian Mountains. What I found over the course of the trip was that these coal-mining process had quickly developed into one of the most destructive and pervasive forms of modern industry in the world." You can see more of his work here and be sure to check out his blog Digressions, he recently posted an interview with Andrew Laumann.
