    Trooper Allen Campbell had recalled, “I didn’t even see the kid. I was just looking down to see what was bumping on my shield. And when I looked down, there was this little kid in a Klan uniform. He saw his reflection in the riot shield. He was tracing his outline. The child was oblivious to what was going on around him”.

    DO look down! Photographer captures New York City and Tokyo from above, standing on the edges of tall buildings

    By ASHLEY COLLMAN

    The thing most people do when they visit a large city for the first time is marvel at the height of the skyscrapers.

    But photographer Navid Baraty thinks the view is much more interesting from above.

    For his latest series titled 'Intersection' Mr Baraty has captured life in New York City and Tokyo from the edges of its tallest buildings. 

    'After seeing countless skyline photos of NYC, I found that the real life of the city can best be captured by pointing the lens straight down from high above,' Mr Baraty told Gothamist.

    'You feel the energy and flow of the city - the constant stream of yellow taxis lining the avenues, the waves of pedestrians hurriedly crossing at the change of traffic signals, little figures disappearing into the subway stations. The chorus of honking horns and sirens,' he described.

    Lately, Mr Baraty says he's been returning to the roofs at night to capture the city illuminated in the dark - just like a brooding Spiderman.

    If you're in New York, you can see the vertigo-inducing pictures in person  on display in the Bowling Green subway station.

    President Obama's Impact: Inauguration Interviews

    On January 19 - 22, I traveled to Washington, D.C. to document the second inauguration of President Barack Obama. I wanted to know how people felt about the last four years, their hopes for the next four, what issues were most important to them and why they wanted to be there. I photographed and interviewed people on Sunday before the inauguration, the morning of the inauguration on the National Mall, after the inauguration on the Mall and along the parade route, and then later that evening at an inauguration party. I asked most everyone five main questions:

    Are your expectations the next four years different than they were four years ago?

    Did President Obama have a tangible impact on your life the past four years?

    What would you like his priority to be for the next term?

    Did you have any disappointments the past four years?

    If there's one thing you could tell President Obama, what would it be?

    These are their stories.

    "I think Obama's gonna be a historical figure when the noise of the Tea Party is silenced.

    "I think he's a nice person—I think he's too nice at times."

    "I lost a lot of hope in the late 60's with the death of Kennedy and Martin Luther King. Things started going downhill for me, and for many decades, I had a hard time relating to the direction of this country. That's turned around for me. I'm proud to be an American."
