I had just finished an assignment and was about to leave the building when I noticed this chap. I was glad I did because it was one of the last shoots I did in New York City before moving back to the UK. And as I knew I would soon be leaving, I paused to take in the spectacular views.
Though this is not at street level, I present it here only because I happened on the scene and it gave me reason to pause and consider, as scenes on the street often do.
I came across the image in my files just the other day while searching for overlooked stock material. Images like this should be publicly available and earning.
I made this shot a few years back late on a frigid New York night while rushing home from an assignment. I just happened to have my camera ready as I saw this group rushing past, eager to get out of the cold.
Thank you for your interest in our blog here at UKSC. We look forward to your returning in 2012. Have a safe and happy holiday.
As has always been the case for me, this humourous long term project emerged from my street photography endeavours and will soon be added to at the iBookstore with several new ebooks on a range of subjects. Both the iPhone and iPad editions are just £2.99 / $4.99.
