Sprachen: Deutsch, Englisch Erstklassige Street Photography mit künstlerischem Anspruch Fernab der Hektik von New York City: Schwarz-Weiß-Fotografien mit einer ruhigen Ästhetik und Atmosphäre Mit bemerkenswerten Aufnahmen der menschenleeren Straßen New Yorks während des Covid Lockdowns Für alle, die auf der Suche nach einem außergewöhnlichen Coffee Table Book über New York sind. "New York Street Diaries" ist ein beeindruckender Bildband für alle Fans des Big Apple. Phil Penman zeigt darin die Großstadt an der Ostküste der USA von einer Seite, die nur selten zu sehen ist, nämlich ruhig und beschaulich. Die Bilder entstanden teils während des großen Schneesturms und teils während des Corona Lockdowns und sind damit Zeitzeugen der Pandemiebeschränkungen, die unsere bis dato bekannte Welt völlig auf den Kopf stellten. Der gebürtige Brite fotografiert seit weit mehr als zwei Jahrzehnten auf den Straßen New Yorks. Bekannt ist er unter anderem durch seine Aufnahmen von berühmten Größen wie Michael Jackson, Madonna, Jennifer Lopez oder Bill Gates. Als am 11. September 2001 die größte Tragödie in der Geschichte New Yorks die Stadt erschütterte, war Phil Penman vor Ort und schuf einzigartige Zeitaufnahmen der Ereignisse mit seiner Kamera. Penman versteht es auf beeindruckende Art und Weise die Stadt in ihren sensibelsten Momenten abzulichten. Er fängt in seinen Schwarz-Weiß-Fotografien intime Momente ein und zeigt die Menschen und Straßen von New York City weit abseits von Hektik und Trubel. Das Stadtleben der Metropole wird dabei so hautnah präsentiert, dass einige Bilder beim Betrachter unweigerlich ein Lächeln hervorrufen. Penman katapultiert seinen Leser mit einer erfrischenden Direktheit förmlich in die Szene hinein und man hat das Gefühl wirklich anwesend zu sein. Das großformatige und aufwendig gestaltete Coffee Table Book zeigt die besten Fotografien von Phil Penman und sollte bei keinem New-York-Liebhaber zu Hause fehlen. Ob als Geschenk oder einfach nur für sich selbst, dieser Bildband ist so wundervoll, dass man ihn kaum noch aus der Hand legen möchte.

I think that at some stage in every young person's life, they dream of riding off into the sunset on a noisy, anti-social motorbike. Sometimes it is simply a thirst for adventure, other times it is to throw off a yoke of convention that is threatening to define ... and constrict.It is often said that youth is wasted on the young. I only agree to the point that many don't realise there is only a small window between the time you leave the influencing umbrella of your upbringing, and the embracing of grown-up responsibilities like relationships, mortgages, children, career pathways etc. The Ernie adventures took place in that 'sweet spot'.
