“At times I come up with ideas beforehand, try to materialize them and it works. At other times, it is an accident and the ideas come afterwards, when the image is already finished and the concept has yet to be understood. It is almost as if I am learning constantly through the process of creation.”

John Schabel, For a period in the 1990s, John Schabel camped out on overpasses near New York airports, peering with a giant telephoto lens into the cabin windows of aircraft waiting, and waiting, for takeoff.

Described as “hopperistic” by the New York Times and New Yorker, Gail Albert Halaban’s large-scale color photos provide a look into the private worlds of ordinary people. “I’m a photographer and therefore I’m a voyeur, and I’m a New Yorker and therefore I’m a voyeur,” said Halaban. Although staged, these photographs capture the realistic experience all New Yorkers can relate to. “I think every city has its own way that people connect to their neighbors. In LA it’s through the car window. In New York, I think it’s through the apartment window.” Halaban’s photographs range from a man playing with his dog to a couple playing with their baby, all with the backdrop of large architecture emphasizing the real New York experience, being one of eight million. Halaban’s book of peeping shots will be released this September by powerHouse books.

Floating Island City (London) 

In Hamburg-based graphic artist and art director Reinhard Krug’s lovely series Islands, which we recently spotted over at Thaeger, majestic modern metropolises – London, Berlin, Hamburg, Hong Kong, Sydney, Cape Town, and New York — float in the ether on tiny islands like mini asteroids. Not only are the images beautiful, but we think they function as both metaphor (cities as worlds unto themselves) and a sort of post-apocalyptic vision (chunks of civilization flung out alone into the far reaches of the universe). However you interpret them, click through to see Krug’s gorgeous series, and if you fall in love with the images, head here to buy a print of your very own.
