rlly love this old paris chic art for girls… wish it made a comeback x
ok yes, YES,..thanku for bringing this to my attention because i actually have so much of these type graphics saved to my computer. i dont know what to call them? it reminds me of winx club and like, gossip girl. it was for girls who wantd to look sophisticated & thoughtful but still a little emo. girls who put marilyn monroe quotes in their flickr bio

i wonder if this style cld ever make a sincere comeback. european alice in wanderlust chic is not fashionable anymore like it was in the early 2000s. these types of images are very whimsical whereas all the most prominent art rn has this sort of doomed & self aware edge to it. so if this stuff did come back into popular consciousness it wld most likely be in a more tongue-in-cheek "memeable" way. the innocence can never be restored but still i love collecting this kind of stuff & feeling the warmth of how things used to be. <3

Catching up on e-mail…
This woman was sitting at an outdoor table of a small restaurant/coffee-shop on the west side of Columbus Avenue at 73rd Street. It’s the first time that I’ve seen anyone in this particular area (which is near a gym that I usually visit 2-3 times a week) with a laptop, and I was delighted to see that she had a Mac…. and not just any old Mac, but a Mac Powerbook.

**********************
This is part of an evolving photo-project, which will probably continue throughout the summer of 2008, and perhaps beyond: a random collection of "interesting" people in a broad stretch of the Upper West Side of Manhattan — between 72nd Street and 104th Street, especially along Broadway and Amsterdam Avenue.
I don’t like to intrude on people’s privacy, so I normally use a telephoto lens in order to photograph them while they’re still 50-100 feet away from me; but that means I have to continue focusing my attention on the people and activities half a block away, rather than on what’s right in front of me.
I’ve also learned that, in many cases, the opportunities for an interesting picture are very fleeting — literally a matter of a couple of seconds, before the person(s) in question move on, turn away, or stop doing whatever was interesting. So I’ve learned to keep the camera switched on (which contradicts my traditional urge to conserve battery power), and not worry so much about zooming in for a perfectly-framed picture … after all, once the digital image is uploaded to my computer, it’s pretty trivial to crop out the parts unrelated to the main subject.
For the most part, I’ve deliberately avoided photographing bums, drunks, drunks, and crazy people. There are a few of them around, and they would certainly create some dramatic pictures; but they generally don’t want to be photographed, and I don’t want to feel like I’m taking advantage of them. I’m still looking for opportunities to take some "sympathetic" pictures of such people, which might inspire others to reach out and help them. We’ll see how it goes …
The only other thing I’ve noticed, thus far, is that while there are lots of interesting people to photograph, there are far, far, *far* more people who are *not* so interesting. They’re probably fine people, and they might even be more interesting than the ones I’ve photographed … but there was just nothing memorable about them.
