No air conditioner…No cell phones…No computers…Less than a quarter century ago, people lived differently. In some ways worse, but if a slower paced life is good, then in many ways it was better.

Photographing NYC for 25 years, six of them while driving a New York City taxi. Trying very hard to capture the city as life unfolds, meaning I never stage any of my photos! Also I am a close confidant of the immortal Dave Beckerman, (quintessential NYC photographer) and owner of the first photography blog in the known universe.

the genie is out of the bottle when it comes to screens. I LOVE the ability to see pictures and have them seen. Good technology. But as a society I think we’d be better off if our screens could only display text. No images. No movies, no gameboys, no sports, no cable tv…
excellent picture!
Thanks Bill! I don’t like books being replaced by screens even if trees are scarce, but I realize that I’m being selfish…
I love this. I wish I’d experienced life in a time such as you’ve managed to depict.
Well, I had an eye for the “leftovers” which were from another time and were already less the norm than one might think…
