The photographs which were taken are by a photography named Paul McDonough, they are taken in the hustle and bustle of New York city in the 60s and 70s, they were taking in black and white which I feel is sophisticated but also got a sense of timeless feel to them, as you would have to be told what century the photos were actually taken in as they are very well presented but also the fashion hasn't changed that much, because many of the fashion which was popular back then is starting to come into the 21st century and is worn by many of the younger generation.
While looking through McDonough items most of the photographers are representing everyday life, but a lot of them can also represent everyday life the 21st century way, due to the black and white pictures but also to the things individuals are getting up to. Even though a lot has changed over the centuries due to equal rights, fashion, construction etc everyday life still is the same in many ways.
For example this photograph of individuals in the park with people riding on bicycles, couples sat on the bench and children playing on a tree arm, this is what happens on a everyday life basis, I feel that everyday life hasn't changed much since the 70s until the 21st century apart from more individuals are working and earning for themselves.
