Photographer and historian Marc Hermann has scrounged through historic crime scene photos in the archives of the New York Daily News and has perfectly blended them with contemporary images from those same locations today. The juxtaposition of historic/modern and grisly/ordinary makes for some interesting images. Real fallen gangsters, fluke plane crashes, femme fatales, and more. This fun tribute to New York City’s not so distant darker side on fstoppers.com is not for the squeamish, but it is an incredibly fascinating series that truly makes ghosts walk amongst us.
