Sidewalk America

Quiet moments in a big city setting, small details, a special type of lighting: Sarah Lee turned urban landscapes into theatre stages where her project, Sidewalk America, was being performed. Her pictures are as diverse and multi-faceted as the people she met along the way.
In LFI 4/2014 we published a portfolio of Lee’s work taken on Sunset Boulevard in Los Angeles, on Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington DC, on Broadway in New York, and on Miami’s 8th Street. Now the photographer has expanded her project to include Woodward Avenue in Detroit.
For her project, Sidewalk America, she used a Leica M, M9, a Summilux-M 50mm f/1.4 Asph, a Summicron-M 35mm f/2 Asph and a APO-Summicron-M 75mm f/2 Asph.
