A powerful photographic meditation on childhood, vulnerability, and the impact of gun violence, capturing children waiting for the school bus in the wake of Sandy Hook.
Morning Bus is a poignant photographic meditation on childhood, vulnerability, and the haunting weight of America's mass shooting epidemic. Inspired by the tragic events at Sandy Hook Elementary in 2012, Greg Miller captures children waiting for the morning school bus in his Connecticut community. These everyday moments--ordinary yet profound--become symbols of trust, innocence, and the silent anxiety carried by parents across the nation. Through intimate portraits, Miller reflects on the unsettling reality that each goodbye at the bus stop is tinged with uncertainty. His images, taken over a decade, underscore the cyclical nature of violence and the quiet resilience of childhood. Morning Bus is more than a photographic series; it is a deeply personal exploration of love, loss, and the fragile line between safety and tragedy in contemporary America.Author Biography
