This series was taken one year while working on a personal project around New York. Waking up one day to see the city in the grip of a terrible storm, it seemed I was unable to go out and shoot anything. But I thought, this could be an opportunity to get some interesting shots, even though I was obviously going to get very wet in the process! So I wrapped my Nikon in a clear plastic bag and loaded it with very fast film. Shooting through the plastic, I wanted to try and capture the atmosphere and effect the stormy conditions had created around the streets of the city.
