Jonathan Higbee is a photographer who fell in love with The Big Apple almost ten years ago. Before deciding to live there for good, he had spent time in Los Angeles, Detroit and Kansas City. At the time, he said to himself that the best way to get to know a city was to photograph it from all angles. Between the chaos and the energy, floods of people and sensory overload, pacing the streets of New York can be both exciting and overwhelming. This is what this young artist set out to show with these 10 photos, showing incredible and at times even shocking coincidences.
1/ Dramatic remake
An ad on a skyscraper depicts fire and smoke. We can’t help but be reminded of the sad events of September the 11th several years previous.
2/ Mickey takes the subway
A well placed helium balloon does the trick!
3/ An ad that is almost realer than real life
If the trousers are in perfect alignment, the bald head is slightly less so!
4/ A miniature man climbing the piles of cardboard
If the model only knew what he was climbing in reality!
5/ She isn’t as invisible as all that!
We can SEEEE you!!!
