Photographs and thoughts on photography and camera collecting
Trying a bit of street photography in New York City (Manhattan).
I generally like to do my street photography in Black and White. But there’s something I like about the bright colors in this one that makes me want to leave it in color.
What to you think?

The light was nice and the poor old horse looked so forlorn. I wondered why it was there and how long it had been there.

This was taken on Third Avenue around 51st Street. I saw two elderly people approaching: a man using a walker and a woman. The woman stopped for some reason, (maybe to look in a store window?) and without her noticing the man continued on down Third Avenue. After a while she looked up again from whatever she was doing and noticed that he was nowhere in sight. Here she’s looking directly into the sun down Third Avenue to see if she could see him. For a guy with a walker he certainly moved very quickly. While I don’t know how this story ended, I imagine she found him eventually. I didn’t stick around to find out.

Maybe this is not what’s generally thought of as street photography. But it is a photograph of a street…and not just any street. This picture was taken on 42nd Street, New York City, directly across from Grand Central Terminal.
