The city makes up for its hazards and its deficiencies by supplying its citizens with massive doses of a supplementary vitamin - the sense of belonging to something unique, cosmopolitan, mighty and unparalleled.

Hope you enjoy my favorite shots of some unique New Yorker moments!
Breathtaking, impressive,
dark, fabulous – Alexander McQueen, you are fantastic!
After visiting the
Alexander McQueen exhibition 'Savage Beauty' at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, I'm literally
speechless. How could this dark and remarkably creative personality
create something so intensive, so fascinating, so disturbing –
something so different? He completely changed my view of fashion. The
title - 'Savage Beauty' – perfectly matches the exhibit's
atmosphere, the dresses and costumes are amazingly beautiful and
fierce at the same time.You could literally breath in McQueen's
passion for designing! The Kate Moss hologram - Widows of
Culloden, autumn/winter 2006–7 – left me speechless, its
wordless beauty made me cry. Hats off, Mr. McQueen, you made my heart
beat faster – you carried me to a different world!
In his own words: 'There
is no way back for me now – I am going to take you on journeys
you've never dreamed were possible' – A. McQueen
