The back seat of a cab in New York - his was, for Ryan Weideman, a “photographic studio” for decades.

When Ryan Weideman arrived at New York in 1980, he was full of dreams. He immediately realized how difficult it was to start a life of a photographer and began to worry about paying his bills and rent.

Inspired by his neighbor who was a taxi driver, Ryan embraced the idea of becoming one and uniting his work with a passion for photography.

He/She is exceptionally beautiful; just so happy Weideman also caught his face in the image! One of my favorites so far.

Well, I am almost sure: after realizing their mirrored image in the lake even caveman did selfies, just painted it on the cave wall. But we do have many-many wonderful famous Painters, who made self-portraits. So I don't se a big of a deal of the black&white selfies. ;) =) ;) =) <3
