On daily walks around New York City, Eric Kogan has a knack for finding unexpected moments of humor and happenstance. His playful photographs (previously) capture visual coincidences and interactions between his urban surroundings and nature.

From clouds seemingly cradled by electrical wires to the moon balanced precariously on the corner of a building, Kogan’s scenes highlight how perspective, light, and excellent timing can capture a lighthearted, even mischievous view of the city. Find more on his website and Instagram.
