  2. Hi Thomas, I’ve discovered your blog these very moments and I’ve decided to hurry up in sending you all my happiness because I’ve bumped into your work. Great, it’s fantastic: I love street photography and I absolutely have to visit NYC one day and hope to stay as long as I can.
    Again, huge stuff I’m seeing on your photoblog!

  4. Photos say more than words and these are BRILLIANT!
    I was there and these photos show the very best of Manhattan in the finest artistic way.
    Incredible!

  9. I love your beautiful photos. I have never been to manhattan, but you make it look so wonderful that I really must go.
    Thank you for showing these.

  10. My name is Fanny and I’m French. I have discovered your blog and It’s more than worlds. In french I only said “véritablement iréelle.Du grand art.”

    Thanks for all, your art, your heart and your eyes.
    Fanny.

  17. Bonjour,

    il n’y a que des commentaires en Anglais alors je vais la faire Originale en français.

    Je n’aime pas trop les USA pour leur président et leur politique extérieur. Mais je dois dire qu’ils ont énormément à montrer.
    Par exemple cette ville, et particulèrement Manhattan me passionne de plus en plus.

    Pour les photos, elles sont excellentes, Si j’y vais, je vous passerez les miennes.

  23. Thomas, This is beautiful work. I have been most everywhere you have shot and must say you did a great job capturing not just the image, but the feel. NYC is one of the few places in the world like that for me. I not only see the city, I feel it, if that makes any sense. Your pics provide that sense. Do you do any digital enhancement in photoshop? When I view “Central Park, Upper Eastside, full-size it appears to be digitally painted. This is a very, very cool look.
    Great Job!!!!

  24. Thankyou man these are beautiful, I’ve been havinga rough time lately been quite depressed but these pictures really made me feel better ina strange way. thankyou!

  25. Hello!
    I love your photographs.
    I forever wanted to explore New York, and I felt your photos. I hope New York is as you portray them in your photographs.

    Your photos allow me to imagine.
    Nice work!

  59. These photos are brilliant! I’ve lived on the west coast my entire life (which, granted, is only 19 years, but still) and a couple of years ago, I went to Manhattan and fell in love with the place. I love your pictures because you show that optimism is not dead in the city. You have a true artist’s touch and I appreciate it. Thank you for sharing your view.

    peace,
    Amalia.

    (p.s. you should take pictures in Times Square so I can romanticize them.)

  88. Quel merveilleuses photos ! Honnetement, je suis française mais je rêve de venir visiter les États Unis et particulierment New York. Cette ville représente beaucoup de chose pour moi pourtant, je n’y suis jamais allée mais je suis attiré par ces quartiers, ces ruelles si bien illustrées par ces superbes clichés de Manhattan ! Ma préféré est sans aucun doute celle de Manhattan in the morning !

    Tis is a great blog, I love New York and finding these photos was a great thing !

  90. These photographs are amazing. I was astounded by the creativity you found in everyday life. I am not an art critic or conniseur in any form or fashion, but I do know what I like, and I loved these. I just chanced upon them on the internet by searching i.love.mark on Google and found one of your photos. I am glad I did. Wonderful, fantastic, touching.

  105. I lived in New York my whole life. I grew up in Queens and did not really discover Manhattan until I was about 20. For the past 25 years my line of work has taken me all over Manhattan, uptown, downtown, eastside and westside sometimes all in one day. Your photos helped me relive how I felt when I first started to explore and discover this place. Wow the memories…..

    Loved the photos

  106. Wow all your pictures are really something else but my favorite is the Subway, Circa 1970 . i love it

  118. I like America & Americans also but not all but i pray to my Allah(swt) that Bush gets assasinated soon and America becomes poor.

  120. Hi. I’m a photographer from Poland. I think that NYC is very exciting place.

    I like Your photos but I think You should take care aobut “art-side”

    Look at photos with air condishining. There is somethig beautiful because is ambigous.

    I like when reality picture makes abstract picture on photos.
    When good frame is full of shadows and some strange paterns with deeps.

  126. wow. “naked” is amazing. love it. i don’t know jacksquat about photography, but your pictures really convey the unspeakable experiences.

  127. This is precisely the kind of photography I’ve always enjoyed. People in their lives. I like your eye. You have to get in there and take risks to capture images such as this.
