Courtesy of photographer Mircea Nicolescu, we’re sharing some scenes from Onlooking, New York Street Photography, his just opened show in Bucharest, Romania.
A strong turnout. Visitors prepared to enter the exhibit.
Many of the pictures represent what Nicolescu saw during his walks around Roosevelt Island. This bit of ironic whimsey gave Romanian crowds a sense of how the local community represents its own slice of New York City.
