A deer penis, gold dust, cow hoof bottle, a pitcher of salami, two dead guinea pigs and some chicken feet.

NOT my weekly shopping list…

…just a few of the wierd and wonderful contraband items Taryn Simon photographed over five days and nights at New York’s JFK Airport. I urge you to check out the story on the NY Times Lens blog, because it’s great. Then look through the extra images on the second slideshow.

And then, when you’re done, watch Taryn talk about her work on secret sites in last year’s TED talk. If you’ve seen it before, watch it again because it’s fascinating stuff.
