Street Photographer Glenn Batkin Turns His Lens to Ethereal Butterflies

"Lucky for me they never asked to see a portfolio because unbeknownst to them, I had just purchased my first digital SLR only a month before," explains Glenn Batkin to us about how he got into photography.

This sense of adventure sets the tone for the experimental playfulness that we find throughout his series on butterflies. Glenn is an NYC based photographer and has been shooting for over a decade. His work is mostly documentary-based, and these days he identifies as a street photographer. When you're used to reacting to things happening in front of you, it seems that photographing a subject like a butterfly could be almost too easy. But Glenn does it masterfully in a way that we've never really seen before. .
