The Deuce and the Bowery. My 70’s NYC photos in Provokr

A story about my NYC 1970’s street photos was recently run in Provokr, an online publication dealing with all aspects of culture. With the release of the HBO show The Deuce, which is centered around Times Square during the early 1970’s, I’ve received many requests about my images. What goes around comes around.

70’s NYC in UK’s Daily Mail

A selection of my NYC street photography from the mid 1970‘s is running in the Daily Mail online site titled Mail Online. The Daily Mail is the UK’s second largest daily newspaper and has the largest online presence of all UK’s papers. These shots were on Tri-x film often pushed to 800ASA so I could hand hold my 80-200 zoom lens. Yes folks, that’s real film grain. Long live The Ramones . . .
