Ten from Weegee and Amber Online

I was in the mood for some Weegee today of all things, and I found myself at Amber Online, a film and photography collective across the pond which incorporates Amber Films, Side Gallery and Side Cinema. They have a solid collection of Weegee images, given to them in the early 1980s by Weegee’s widow, Wilma Wilcox.

Here are ten images I love, see more here.

  2. “Simply add boiling water.” That image is priceless, tho the dudes in the paddy wagon is pretty great as well. Heck, almost all of those Weegee photos kick butt.
