I run a photo blog and thought that one of my recent shot was a good fit for Leonard's old poem "I wonder how many people in this city". Here's the post:

that photograph is an excellent illustration to accompany leonard's poem. there was actually a short film made in 1993 that was also based upon his poem.

Went and looked at it, too, Jens. It is, indeed, an excellent photo to accompany Leonard's poem.
Well done ~ great matching !

Hi Jens,
I've just found your tumblr blog. It is excellent!
Wonder, have you finished your

Thanks for looking around there, Goldin. I hadn't done that and didn't see the Subway story plan. Am sending the link to a New Yorker I know.

Geoffrey, I'd love to check out the film. Do you recall the name?
I haven't finished the project yet and put it on hold after I moved to China. I'll eventually be back and hopefully finish it sooner rather than later. I just didn't feel that I had enough variety for a full book. In case you're interested, I've started a tumblr to display my instagram shots from China:

Thanks for posting Jens!
What an intriguing picture - yes, it goes perfectly with the poem. I found myself peering into windows and wondering about some of the lights.

That's funny, Cate. I was looking at the darkened windows and wondering who might have binoculars
