In the world's most photographed city, it takes the eye of a frequent visitor to offer this view that goes beyond the cliches of landscape and architecture to celebrate the individual moments, the movement and change that make New York unique. Page after page, here is an unexpected, new New York, a city made of faces, gestures, and details that would elude both the impatient lens of the tourist and the blase glance of many a Manhattanite.

The flash of a reflection in a shop window, a painted advertisement that will be gone in a week, flea market shoppers deep in conversation-- these views reveal the 'invisible' beauty of the city to visitors and residents alike.
