I first discovered Jeff Sheng's project via the LA Times in a story that posted back in November of 2009. For the past year he has been working on his series "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" - portraits of service men and women with their identity masked by shadow and lighting.
“Ultimately for me, these photographs underscore the silence permeating the unsung heroism of gay and lesbian military personal,” said Sheng. “The photos are about the men and women who continue to fight and serve despite the heartbreaking invisibility they suffer.”
Just a few weeks back, Jeff released "Don't Ask Don't Tell" Vol. 1 on his own website DADT.com. He is currently working on Vol. 2.
