Ashok Sinha is a New York-based photographer whose large scale landscape photographs picture uncommon perspectives. His photographs have been exhibited by The Museum of the City of New York, the International Cen- ter of Photography, and The Royal Photographic Society. I love cars and I love Los Angeles for being a city of cars. Over the last decade or so, I have been intrigued by L. A.'s love affair with the automobile, tracing back to a time when cars themselves were objects of beauty. Those cars are no longer on the streets today but the buildings from that era remain. As an architectural photographer, I wanted to capture L. A.'s car-culture-induced optimism and ambition reflected in polychromatic, star-spangled coffee shops, gas stations, and car washes, that once lured the gaze of passing motorists. (Ashok Sinha)

About the Author
Sinha, Ashok: - Ashok Sinha is a New York-based photographer whose large scale landscape photographs picture uncommon perspectives, delegating the horizon in the bottommost third of the image, or as seen while photographing directly over the edge of a icebreaker ship or through the window of a transcontinental flight. While his interest in the beauty of the natural world endows a unique attention to the unnoticed, his commercial career as an architectural photographer informs bodies of work that focus on the built environment. His photographs have been exhibited at The Museum of the City of New York, the International Center of Photography, and The Royal Photographic Society. Sinha is also the founder of Cartwheel Initiative, a nonprofit that works with displaced and refugee youth, which empowers these young people to tell their stories through the use of photography and multimedia. He works in New York City and Los Angeles.Esterson, Jack: - Jack Esterson is a principal at think! architecture and design. With over 40 years of architectural practice in New York State, Jack has deepened and refined his skills across projects of varying budgets, scales and programs and is commited to making New York and its communities better places through quality architectural design, no matter what the project program, location or budget proves to be. He has received numerous design awards and has been featured widely in domestic and international media. Most recently Jack received the Henry Hobson Richardson Award for the 2015 Excelsior Awards for Public Architecture recognizing architects who have made a significant contribution to the quality of NYS public architecture and who have established a portfolio of accomplishments to that end.Littlefield, Sherri: - "Sherri Littlefieldis a New York City based photographer and curator interested in data, collaborate projects and using contemporary art toward social good.
