Crossing, Twice Over · New York

Chapter Two · New York, Miami, Frankfurt

The Wait

I don’t chase pictures. I find a frame that already works, the light, the lines, the gap between two buildings, and then I stand there until somebody walks into it. Most of these took a lot longer to get than they look.

Frames I stood still for.

Prints

Every frame in this chapter is available as a pigment print on ILFORD GALERIE Smooth Pearl, signed, in a numbered edition of twelve. Standard sizes are 8×12, 12×18 and 20×30 inches; other sizes on request. See any of them on a wall.

Tell me the chapter and the frame, the caption line under each picture is enough to identify it, and I will come back with sizes, paper, and price.
