There are some great web-based photography sites (Flickr being currently the most talked-about) but none are more compelling than this collection of pictures from a Georgia police officer. Says J, who prefers to remain anonymous: All of the photographs on this site were taken by me while on duty. Clearly, Js got an eye for a picture, but his collection documents an everyday most of us could only imagine. Often taken from a patrol car, images include grim project housing, pepper spray cartridges and rows of gleaming handcuffs. Clockwise from top left images include an apartment complex destroyed by fire; an abandoned building on the north side of the photographers jurisdiction; gang graffiti by Hispanic gang Surenos 13, or Sur13 for short and a feed store shot at dusk. A grim but fascinating glimpse into someone elses world. www.graphicjunkies.com
