Window Light

bedtime story-

This evening, I sat by an open window
and read till the light was gone and the book
was no more than a part of the darkness.
I could easily have switched on a lamp,
but I wanted to ride this day down into night,
to sit alone and smooth the unreadable page
with the pale gray ghost of my hand.

Times Square food vendorTimes Square, 11:00 PM

Oh, how I waited to get this shot. Waited for the vendor to be visible despite the enveloping steam from his food truck. Waited for the scrolling messages on his electronic sign to display my favorite one. Many times I had one, but not the other. The magic was in capturing the two together.

The architect Josep Fontseré urbanized land that were free to demolish the fortress that oppressed Barcelona after losing the War of Succession in 1714. During the last twenty years of the nineteenth century a number of buildings were built in a unitary and eclectic style. Its most prominent feature is the arched porches round spot. This photograph is a view of the porches from within.
