This New York waterfront panorama gallery was taken with a Hasselblad XPAN 2, a panoramic camera .
I began this work in november 2004, walking along the Hudson river, the East river end the Harlem river. A strange sensation of calm in New York. A few travels later, I took photographs around Manhattan and the other boroughs of NYC, always trying to walk close the waterfront. Not so easy sometimes...
The highways along the rivers look like borders, where you have to find a way. The waterfront is changing, more parks, new constructions, more jogging path...Some of these photos show a landscape which doesn't exist anymore.
