Innocently striking a light down at Union Square when someone comes along and sticks a camera in her face.
Shot in the full light of day using a Nikon FM2, Kodak 400 TX, it really did feel as though I were shooting in the dark.

It’s a great shot, Patti – but even more, it’s quite shocking how shocking it is to see someone (especially a woman) doing that, these days. How quickly society can change, if it wants to. 🙂

We are strange creatures we humans huh? She has made herself so pretty on the outside with her hair bow and her bracelet and the lipstick and blingy shades – but maybe doesn’t believe her insides are so important. It is a statement! And who are we to judge? For me you have captured the conundrum perfectly!

So feminine, so lady like, so sexy! Obviously you can tell I am not a smoker (I think). A great shot. Too bad that woman can’t see herself lighting up! Maybe she’d quit and stick around a bit longer!
