Hill & Aubrey, Photographer, New York

Description

An elderly man in a dark jacket leans over bright green plastic construction barriers, peering intently down into a deep excavated pit in the asphalt street. He holds a rolled-up newspaper in his hand while inspecting the exposed earth and brickwork below. The high-angle overhead shot captures the urban street setting, featuring a portion of a vehicle tire in the upper right corner and white road markings on the grey tarmac. The natural lighting and candid framing create an observational, documentary-style record of city life by photographer Hill & Aubrey.
