This project was a lot of fun, discovery and amazement to produce. I started working on the concept in mid-October. Had to set up some collaborations with photographers, do the research, gather my thoughts, lay out a story line, then go fetch images and scour my archives for older images which may be still relevant. The idea was to show NYC in a different light, from different angles and using striking images with accentuated colors.
As it progressed, the piece looked better and better and I was really encouraged by the support of some of the photographers, especially Trey Ratcliff who opened up its treasure chest of beautiful HDRs to me.
