"I believe in pink. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day, and I believe in miracles." --Audrey Hepburn

New York Subway Photography





I just recently discovered the stunning and fascinating photography of Travis Ruse. This talented photographer has chosen to take his inspiration from a seemingly mundane exhibit, his daily commute on the subways of New York City. In doing so, Ruse has captured all of the small details and special moments that make the experience of riding in a subway car such an intriguing one. I know that I love coming into contact with all of these different people who come from so many diverse backgrounds in this intimate and contained environment. I always enjoy wondering where these individuals are headed and what activities fill their day in the city, and I can tell just by looking at these pictures that Travis Ruse is just as intensely interested in the subjects of his subway photography.

Be sure to visit the link and browse through the entire gallery - I picked out just a few to showcase for you, but each and every photograph is beautiful and interesting in its own right!

These pictures are really amazing, so natural and down to earth.First I was thinking like "well, she's amazing at taking simple pics" but than I noticed that they were actually professional pics. Great job to the artist!

hate to ask this, but it's kinda crappy when people go on the blog list and visit an abandoned blog... lol; i know i hate it. if you wouldn't mind, could you switch my blog (live.speak.breathe.fashion) to not so prim and proper located at www.kristinPRIM.co.nr?
