Each autumn Ludwig Favre returns to Coney Island in Brooklyn to photograph the boardwalk in its quieter season. The crowds thin, the rides slow, the painted wood turns the color of old paper. Favre approaches the place as one of the last surviving vernaculars of the American twentieth century, photographing it without nostalgia: the geometry of the rides, the flat ocean light, the painted signage softened by sea air. The image is part of his ongoing New York series on the city's coastal edges.
