Two strangers, photographed five exposures apart, June 2012

It's amazing that we exist in the same reality, much less in the same city, same block, same five minutes.
(Even if it was Coney Island.)

Oh, c'mon, that's Coney Island -- you're cheating! The only place you could go to find more divergent people in a five-minute period is Venice Beach!

No such thing as cheating, though I appreciate your enthusiasm. I'm certainly not gonna judge my work by its easiness/availability to shoot. Not that I even believe in such a concept. Why not shoot Coney Island? It's fun and people there like to have their photo taken.

Well, I was mostly teasing. In my book, of course you should shoot Coney Island, and all of Brooklyn -- I love seeing your photos of my borough. It was just the part about finding such diverse subjects in the same place and time. Maybe to a visitor it's remarkable -- I know I've thought that when I've visited Venice Beach -- but in Brooklyn? Eh, fugeddaboutit.
