Weegee – born Arthur Felling was born in Austrailia, emigrated with his family to Manhattens lower east side in 1909.

Weegee was forced to leave school at an early age to support his family, he made a living for a while being a street photographer in the east side ghetto.

Looking into Weegee’s documentary work of  New York, taken between the 1930′s and 1960′s. I was really drawn inby the we he too the images of New York. The composition and the way he really gets in there with his camera is amazing.

Weege was anamazing street photographer all his images are amazing and make you feel like you are there.  The lighting and composition again are amazing. I hope to be able to capture the people of Korea in a similar way that Weegee did in New York.

I really do think that the composition on Weegees images are amazing, I hope that I can create some images that are just as amazing and as captivating as Weegee.
