For every one of his fantastic shots, photographer Peter Funch stakes out a busy New York City street corner, capturing hundreds of moments over the course of several weeks from the same spot. Then, he digitally combines real scenes into one surreal super scene. Suddenly, all the people who passed him while dressed in black re-appear simultaneously. Every single person in Times Square is a picture-snapping tourist. Everyone on a Lower East Side street has a little dog. Everyone is yawning. Everyone has balloons. The happenings in his “fictional documentary” series Babel Tales aren’t lies, they’re truths exaggerated. Enjoy the views in our gallery.
