Among Ghosts and Gravity
At Columbus Circle on Halloween, a skateboarder rises above the pavement while a face-painted couple sits behind him. I photographed the instant when separate performances aligned—costume, chance and gravity briefly sharing the same stage.

About Artist
Alp Turgut
Alp works in cinematic black and white street and documentary photography, focusing on human presence and quiet narratives within everyday life. Each day, he seeks moments that often go unnoticed; scenes where time seems to pause and reality becomes cinematic. His work invites the viewer to slow down, spend time with the image, and get lost within the frame.
