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.

Black and White Street Photographs of New York City by Matt Weber 
First thought: James Dean
I have no idea why, since he died in an auto accident…but he was my first thought.
Impossible image to look at without wondering what the story is behind it all….which makes it a good photo. 🙂
Gregorious, I’d bet my bottom dollar that the owner wanted a new bike and decided to collect on his insurance policy…He took the gas tank and seat first.
