Sometimes, I like to maintain a bit of distance because it allows me to truly absorb the entire narrative, like zooming out on a map to appreciate the entire landscape.

In the early days of photography, some people believed that having your picture taken could capture not just your image but a part of your soul as well. In some ways that’s true since every picture freezes a moment in time, preserving it forever.

The first cable of the new Hudson River (later named the George Washington) Bridge at 178th Street, was laid on the Manhattan side, 1929. A crowd on the Hudson River Day Line steamer Peter Stuyvesant watches the raising of the cable. One of the large piers of the bridge may be seen in the background, to which the cable was hoisted from the river bottom. Click/tap to enlarge.
