Cortlandt Alley New York City Werkaandemuur by ngeerlings



A movie scene inspired me to transform a photo I made in 2013 in a secluded street in Lower Manhattan: Cortlandt Alley, on the borders of Chinatown, Tribeca and SoHo. This is, especially in the evening, a totally deserted alley. They film here regularly for commercials. Almost nothing you see is real; steam, buildings, colors. But it fits exactly in the picture I have in my head when I take a movie scene in mind. Of course, the buildings you see really exist, but not in the way they are presented here. Because I have a b&w camera, I had to add color. And by doing some research how a movie street scene would look like, I came to this result. via 500px http://ift.tt/1Bc1vgv
