Graphic Photos from a Slaughter House. (NWS - Graphic Images)

Great photos but may be gut wrenching for some (doubt it will affect CS members)

Vegetarians leave now!

Pic 7 is bizarre.... Its hanging by its tendons????

Either way, its not a good read. Should also be NWS in the title.

They're just pretty shocking and different

Pic 8?

never noticed that! hmm this is going to put me off meat till i wake up tomorrow.

 

[The Boosh!]

Wouldn't say they are amazing.

Still brings home where our meat comes from... Saying that that looks like a foreign slaughter house so regulations in there will be none existent I should imagine.

I always wonder what people think goes on in a slaughter house?

Number 2 needs a caption something along the lines of "WTF!"

Find the pictures disgusting really. I just dont see the need to photograph it all.

A rather graphic subject, but 2, 6 and 7 are well thought out. Sure I've heard the guy's name before somewhere.

did see the 'silence of the lambs' picture in one of the glossy Sundays (one with the lambs looking in) - powerful image, although may be diluted in company? there were some great photos from other entrants, but that one really stood out

 

[Omid]

Yeah, I guess you guys find it more disgusting than I do seen as I dissect human bodies regularly :S

But it is pretty sick and it is an eye opener

 

[Ribena]

very different. The poor pig in photo 6 is shitting itself.

bit different but not to my taste - showing animals in pain/fear is not up my street at all.

Good photography though. Spot on tbh.
I just don't like the nature of it.

I'm definately not having a fry up for a while. Seeing blood from a mammal that was half an hour ago minding its own business, kind of makes me sick.
