Photojournalist Lauren McGee went to New York to document people during the height of COVID-19.

She comments, “The woman’s red hat caught my attention as the two sat overlooking the water. I took the shot. When I returned from New York I had hundreds of images of empty streets and ambulances. This one reminds how beautiful the city remains, Coronavirus-stricken, or not.” —————————————————————
Look out for more beautiful photos from Lauren on our page.
