I wandered around Pier 83.
Morning conversation.
Fisherman.
At the Dog Park.
An absent-minded touch.
Dainties.
My pick for this week’s photo challenge probably has everything to do with the fact that Dad is in surgery today. Again.
Radio City Music Hall
Rockefeller Center
Amazing Art Deco adorns the buildings inside and out.
5th Avenue
I can’t afford to shop here. Saks 5th Avenue.
Or here. I loved this window with all the mirrors to capture the street activity. Of course I waited for pedestrians to appear in the mirrors!
I must admit to lusting after one of these.
I think she’s doing a bit of lusting too.
Near the Museum of Modern Art
Workers hang high above the street.
One of many, many food wagons in the city.
Taking a call. This just screamed “Shoot me!” – Honestly, I couldn’t have planned it better.
I hesitated before publishing these photographs, but I felt it would be dishonest not to show you that I saw this side of New York as well. To not show you is to continue to make them invisible.
These are the only photos I took of street people, though I saw many others like them (and far worse) throughout the city. This is our collective failure.
I call them blessed relief.
Update: These are Apricot Mallows. http://www.desertusa.com/mag99/sep/papr/globemallowl.html
