Danielle Levanas

Sitting in Dojo in the Village, broken down and exhausted, I was watching freezing rain turn into snow on Nov. 7th. This was what I called the "sucker punch storm." After Sandy passed through, power came back in lower Manhattan just in time for this Nor'easter. people without electricity and heat still had to deal with even colder temperatures. It was devastating. And the photo is also beautiful... shows the dissonance and duality of live in NYC. also the rough survival spirit of New Yorkers.
