My Modern Metropolis

Graffiti, street photography and NYC. What's not to love? This beautiful and artistic capture is by Navid Baraty, the man behind those beautiful Brooklyn blizzard photos. It was taken at the Lower East Side, NYC.

"I decided to do a little snowy day shooting in Manhattan yesterday while running some errands, and I decided to head over to the corner of Houston and Bowery to check out the ever-evolving hot spot for graffiti to see what the latest display looked like (a couple of months ago it looked like this)," Baraty tells us. "I waited for about 15-20 minutes in the middle of Houston street for this person to come by... I wanted someone that looked rather dark and ominous to juxtapose with the very bright and cheerful wall."
