There's treasure everywhere!


This must be one of the coolest stories I have ever found on the interwebs (thanks manilacamerastyle.com).
It's an incredible story about a guy who buys a box full of negatives at an auction to find out he stumbled on one of the greatest street photographers from the past, who also happened to be a nanny.

You can see more of here pictures and some more background on the story on http://vivianmaier.blogspot.com


Now where are those boxes of negatives that my father shot with his Rolleiflex?

    Absolutely amazing. All her photographs are interesting. Really happy that her heritage didn't end up in someone's bin.

    You do know there are some negatives at mum's house right?
    But I don't know if these are the negatives you are looking for.

    Pretty amazing story by the way!
