New York photographer of French-Venezuelan origin Mathieu Asselin (Mathieu Asselin) was on Coney Island one frosty day. He experimented with lighting on the ocean. By chance, he had the opportunity to do a small photo shoot of winter swimmers. As a result, Mathieu was imbued with the strength of character of these people and repeatedly came to the coast several times to capture portraits.

The series of photos "Winter Swimmers" accurately reflects the character of New York at its best: beauty, quirkiness, willingness to accept a challenge and a strong team spirit.McFadden is probably forgotten by many, but his legacy lives on in Mathieu's photographs and the spirit of winter swimmers paying homage to "the most incredible gift and miracle" year after year.
