Silent Nights (12 pics)

In this great photo set by Kevin Cooley, we're left wondering what these twelve individuals could be thinking. Alone in the city on a cold winter's night, they sit in silence with not a single soul around them. What memories could be racing through their head? Are they savoring the silence or swimming in their sea of problems?












Kevin Cooley is a photo and video artist who lives and works in Brooklyn. He has worked with magazines like GQ, Fast Company, Details, Newsweek, Time and Wired.

All the winter pics are definitely Montreal.

I used to do a lot of this kind of thing a few years ago, it's really hard to find both an interesting composition and properly lighted. One of the things I loved about doing this kind of thing is how dramatically different the world seems when you're alone walking around a city at 2-3am. Nice work.

But to answer your question - they're taken in Germany, France, and Canada.

@Paige Johnson - if you go to his website (red link above) and click through his work you'll find out where these were all taken.
