This time last year and so many seasons since . . . when it doesn’t seem that long ago at all.
Shot down on the Bowery during a biting snow storm, squeezing the last final frames out of the camera before the creeping lens fog declared enough, no more.
New York City autumn afternoon . . .
After the long warm summer, a thin crowd potters at peace under the dark clouds of oncoming autumn along the boardwalk from Brighton Beach to Coney Island.
Those of you who are familiar with Visual Venturing may recognize this photo from a while back. Being on the road this week, I thought it would be okay to revisit one of my favorites. I took this in Central Park while on a trip to New York City in September 2012.
I would like to say I planned every aspect of this shot, but I have to be honest: I was focused on capturing the young men silhouetted against the fountain and I had to fire off a quick burst of photos before they walked out of the frame. I was definitely surprised (and delighted) when I opened the file on my computer to find what else I had managed to capture. Had I tried to purposefully frame this shot, I doubt I would have been as successful. Have fun discovering the “extras”!

This car is a reasonably familiar sight to me but always,
it takes me by surprise. A stealth car, it cruises by in
silence as though on a visit from the past and still I am
yet to catch a glimpse of the driver.
Under the glare of the mid morning sun I caught the
cruiser in action, not at all sure of what I might get,
in the full road rays of a quiet New York City moment.
