5. Brooklyn Photographer Creates Whimsical Images of NYC

Brooklyn-based photographer, Brian Goldfarb, brought a dash of whimsy to a city built upon grey concrete and industrial skyscrapers. We recently came across his surreal images (h/t Laughing Squid), which depict various places in New York City through an imaginative filter.

One particularly unique location is inside the Freedom Tunnel, the Amtrak tunnel beneath Riverside Park, a popular urban exploration spot. See more of his photos here.
