nyc
one in 8 million.

one of the things i miss most about
living in nyc is the intimacy of pedestrian
and commuter culture.
the huddled masses are forced up
against each other in the subways,
busses and streets.
cultures merge. demographics blend.
your senses absorb the sights sounds
and smells, for better or worse,
of your fellow city dwellers.
everyone becomes a part of everything,
if only for a few minutes.
interaction and confrontation
is beautifully unavoidable.
the new york times is running a wonderful
wonderful wonderful series called
one in 8 million
that makes me feel like home.
my favorite story is from
mr. tremitiere: the baby deliverer.
nyc… it’s not me. it’s you.
we’ve been together for a decade.
i owe you so much. really i do.
and while i love you… it’s time to go.
but before we do, let’s DO IT BIG one more time.
check out all the info here.
thx to the homies lindsey & myles, tara and derreck.
me and my bitch.

astor place 2005.
i took this with my beloved pentax p30.
i will always love film. always always always.
no doubt, i am a digital convert.
but my heart will forever belong to the tactile
process that is working with film.
from end to end, your hands are all up in it.
i love that.
by the way, welcome to shotbykristy.
