#SummerSouls It‘s pretty hard to find the #sand in this Coney Island beach scene ! Love Weegee photographs though many are lurid crime scene photos.

It appears my experience with photography collections is similar to that of poetry collections: I'm happy to spend time finding the few that stand out to me.
As has been remarked upon by much more qualified critics, I love Leiter's moments of strong colour, the pure history of witnessing snippets of daily life from the 1950s, his fondness for umbrellas. 1/3
No doubt Margit has her hands full with an art foundation, but based on this description, I would definitely read more from her.
In debt to Teju Cole for making me aware of Saul Leiter.
A surprise gift from a sweet local friend. I look forward to browsing through this gorgeous book. 💕
My mom sent me this book as a birthday gift. I've been looking through it and it's really inspiring.

I was so thrilled with my gift from the Jólabókaflód Swap that I decided to make it my first read of the year. Humans of New York embodies what I hope to see magnified in the coming year: tolerance, acceptance and a lot more unconditional love between human kind.
Happy New Year out there and everywhere! May 2021 deliver more blessings than we can number.?
What an incredible book. Thought-provoking, heartwarming, and heartbreaking, things like this should be required reading. #humans #brandonstanton #humansofnewyork #blog
