street.
New York City is full of liminal moments: a foot lifted but not yet placed, a mouth opened but not yet speaking. There is tension, and implication, and suggestion, and no matter how likely it seems that something will happen, it can always go differently.
These moments are fraught, and fragile. We may see them and appreciate them for a second, but then they can only be remembered, imperfect and incomplete. But photographed, one can linger on their complexity, and guess at what someone is saying, what they are thinking, where they are going.
Processed into ultracontrast, detail and texture are heightened, and shades of gray turn to stark blacks and whites. In this harsh light, even ordinary moments become mythic.
