A New Take On Street-Style Photography?

Latte Revolution by Peter Funch (from his "Babel Tales" series)

We all love a good perv. That's why street-style blogs are thriving.

Danish photographer Peter Funch is not a street-style blogger but I love what he's done in his "Babel Tales" series of photographs (discovered via designboom).

En Passant by Peter Funch (from his "Babel Tales" series)

In 2007, he took his camera out onto the streets of New York, plonked it down on various corners and started snapping away at people walking by. Not just anyone but people that fell within his theme-of-the-day - people wearing clothes of a certain colour, different people doing the same thing at a certain spot, people of the same profession...

And he, very creatively, made montages of these individual shots into one big picture, drawing a line connecting these strangers in a big city.

Posing Posers by Peter Funch (from his "Babel Tales" series)

Wouldn't it be great to see a huge panoramic montage of different pairs of beautiful shoes pounding the same pavement on Jak & Jil? Unsuspecting pretty girls walking along a French avenue on Garance Dore? And spiffy men caught off-guard in all the cities that The Sartorialist visits?

Dobbeltganger by Peter Funch (from his "Babel Tales" series)

This is my favourite of the whole series. He must have hung out at the same spot for days to get images of the same folks at least twice to piece this picture together!
