IRB Round 3 Post 2 (Lens)

Portrait of New York
http://lens.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/12/06/newfound-colors-for-a-portrait-of-new-york/

This article is about Reuel Golden, and his book "New York, Portrait of a City." The article talks about how this book was successful in being unique, and not just another New York City picture collections. Personally I love a lot of the images from this collection. They all have that feeling of intrigue, as if each and every one has a deep back story. I also liked how the author used pictures from all different time periods, and especially how he rooted out early examples of color. I feel like the collection really brings out all the different aspects of New York. What do you think?
