Last month, photographer Atisha Paulson emailed me a set of photographs of New York which we decided to host under the banner of our Your Town is a Paradise series. I don't know if you agree or not and to be honest I don't have time to care.
Last week though, Atisha emailed a fresh batch of photos, asking if there was any way we could offer a "kinder, gentler perspective" on his hometown. So here you go, Atisha – Ew, look at these people, guys! (Sorry Atisha, your pictures are still great.)
See more of Atisha's work here.
