One year ago, yesterday – November 1st 2012 Hurricane Sandy ravaged the east coast of the US. During the “Super Storm,” photojournalists fearlessly covered the developments, hoping to capture photos so the world could understand the devastation. Ben Lowy was at the forefront of the coverage a Hipstamatic photographer, and award winning photojournalist. Ben was hired by TIME magazine to document the storm.
