![]() ![]() I have no idea how large or small Gunther Deichmann’s apartment in Manila is, but the images from his new book — “Views from my Balcony” — are spectacular vignettes of life, flashing with light and color. Filled with images of rickshaws flitting in the night, people running in the rain, storms brooding along and above the skyline, buildings on fire, and life exploding onto the streets of a magical place he has plucked from the shadows, we see life through the eyes of a master looking down from on high at a vibrant city. What an extraordinary testament to how a gifted photographer can be boxed onto a sliver of concrete ten floors about the ground, and yet see and create an entire world. If there is one place Jay Maisel might have traded for his legendary building on New York City’s Bowery, it might be Gunther Deichmann’s balcony in Manila. Highly recommended. | ||
