Humans of New York is the name of the site founded and run by Brandon. Photographing New Yorkers and publishing these together with personal stories and quotes from the people he meet, the blog makes for an interesting read.

The late bloomer:

“I was extremely shy when I was younger. I wasn’t asked to the prom or anything. Life didn’t really even start for me until I turned fifty. But let’s just say I got plenty of experience after that!”

A dramatic turn of events:

"Bank robbery was my crime of choice. You know, I hadn’t committed a single crime until the age of 54. But then I robbed my first bank, and after that I went on quite a tear."
