I was listening to the Hemmings Podcast today and the host had on a guest named Nick Reid. Nick is a photographer who has done some photography work for Dianne Keaton in the past. Turns out Dianne collects "interesting" old black and white photos. She purchased a bunch of photos from an estate sale years ago of a coroner who was tasked with taking photos of fatal car wrecks in from 1949 until 1989. His method of photography was quite unorthodox at the time. If he was taking a night shot he'd expose the film, then move the flash around the wreck turning the flash on and off in different locations. This created quite a result. Nick took a bunch of these photos, picked the most compelling and spent hours cleaning them up and editing (removing anything related to the victims) and he and Keaton published them in a book fittingly called "Dead of Night". I'm not sure if I'd buy the book but the photos are strangley fascinating.
