Within minutes of seeing her photographs I would agree, her viral renown is indisputable. What impresses me most is the quietness to which she kept her work. She did it for herself – not for anyone else. And to be so brilliant about it all. Her eye is indeed one of the best I’ve seen from the time.

In case you haven’t Googled her yet, here is more of her work, page after page of such insightful imagery:
