Zina Saunders' Portraits of New York Cyclists


Thanks to Boing Boing's guest blogger Bill Gurstelle, I discovered Zina Saunders great site called Overlooked New York where she collects "portraits and interviews with ardent New Yorkers about their joyous obsession." Her portraits of The Puerto Rican Schwinn Club and Bike Messengers are quite wonderful. On Zina's site, click on the small images along the top of the page to see the portraits and interviews.

  1. Thanks for the referral. The portraits pull you in, and the stories come alive.

  2. Sweet! The messenger profiles were amazingly diverse - not my stereotype at all, which serves me right. And the Puerto Rican Schwinn Club and their homeland history? I had no idea.
