Mirroring

This does remind me a bit of that Marx Brothers movie where Harpo was acting as if he was Groucho as reflected in a mirror.  Someone suggested to me that this was posed.  I couldn't have posed it.

The Birdman of Washington Square

He loves his birds.  He lures them by feeding them, and they flock to him.... literally.

The Street Fair

On Veterans Day (and Columbus Day), Broadway is shut down and the street vendors have full reign.  The crowded streets do have a consistent and mundane assortment of regular vendors.  After going one pass down the street to the end, I came back and looked at the isolated people who were hanging around appearing somewhat lonely.

The Truck Line

The line lasts 10 minutes, 15 minutes.... and you order, and then you wait for the food to be ready.  What was it like to wait before the age of electronics.

Thoughtful

They were waiting for a bus to come, one of them was working hard on homework.  Yet, one had asperations that went beyond school work.  There was a world out there, and the realities of the day didn't matter.  No need to work when there was a life to be alive in her head.

Storming Wall Street

Another rainy day on Wall Street, cold and damp.  I watched the activity from up the steps at Federal Hall.
