In our second installment of Feature Fridays, we’re focusing the spotlight on photographer Barry Yanowitz, whose Brooklyn-based work is nothing short of breathtaking. Though his work exhibits a wide breadth of artistic styles, lately, we’ve really been admiring his ability to capture the essence of street art: wonderful shots of graffiti and murals that juxtapose city life with wit and tongue-in-cheek playfulness.
Make sure to check out his entire Flickr photostream here, and the galleries on his official website here! For a taste of his work, check out the great shots below.

I’ve been a fan of Barry’s work, but haven’t seen all these. They’re amazing.
