I have a fascination about the city of New York. I will never have enough money to go there even less chance of living there. Lorcan Otway´s pictures takes me there. Lorcans pictures is not about the best sights in New York, it´s not about the statue of liberty, the Brooklyn bridge or the Empire State building.
