Coming and Going

We went to the movies yesterday for Father’s Day (Star Trek: Into Darkness, at Sweetie’s request. Yes, it was a fun movie.)  Outside the theater is the interactive fountain, and though there weren’t very many kids there at the time, I caught this little boy having some fun.

Sweetie surprised me by heading into the fountain himself, and somehow he managed to hang out the center without getting too wet.

New York City: Uptown

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.

New York City: Attention must be paid

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 didn’t want to let the light go to waste

I was supposed to do a shoot this evening at Rancho San Rafael Park in Reno, but neither of the two young women were able to coordinate their transportation. Not wanting the early evening light to go to waste, I wandered about the park shooting whatever, and whoever, caught my eye.

There were a lot of people enjoying the warm weather.

And a little color . . . (more to come).
