There are constant reminders of the outside world at the California Men’s Colony. The prison, nestled in the seaside mountains outside of San Luis Obispo, is routinely enveloped by a thick fog that rolls in from the ocean at dawn. Seagulls and other birds fly overhead, stop occasionally to perch on the razor wire encircling the yard, and fly away at a whim. The birds are a reminder of the world outside, which many people in this prison will never again experience.

From PDN:
In a year when journalism from Hurricane Katrina dominated the Pulitzer Prizes, the staff of The Dallas Morning News won the 2006 Pulitzer for breaking news photography for coverage of the hurricane. It is the second time in three years The Dallas Morning News has claimed the breaking news photography prize.
Todd Heisler of the (Denver) Rocky Mountain News won the feature photography Pulitzer Prize for the “Final Salute” project. It is Heisler’s second Pulitzer. In 2003, he was part of the Rocky Mountain News team that won the breaking news photography prize for coverage of wildfires.

But together, these two talented journalists created something more complete and more powerful than either could have done alone.
