Steam Pipe

Another one for the "Steam" series...

Camelback Kite Flying

I think they were adjusting the flags above, but to me, the image is two men standing on a camel flying kits.

Razzle Dazzle

This picture to me looks like actors against a fake backdrop, but it is, in fact real.  I got a very quick take on the guy in the scarf and rattled off a single shot.  Her hand gesture reminds me of a number of the Broadway Show "Chicago" called "Razzle Dazzle".

Rockefeller Surrealism

It was raining as I moved through Rockefeller Center.  The darkness and slow shutter speed created some surrealistic shots that look like paintings.  

30 Rock Slick

I was drawn to this solitary man looking down on the ice skating rink, at about the location where the Christmas Tree would be during the holidays.  

Observing the Rink

Neon Park Sign

I had a long walk back from an evening social event on a rainy evening.  Looking to the right as I walked down Fifth Avenue I spotted the neon "Park" sign.  I parked myself and gathered a few shots.  

Park Run

This one shows the motion of the car, and the group of girls are highlighted against the garage entrance.

Lunch Coupling

I could have selected one couple in one of the windows, but I find a certain duality to the activities in these windows.

The Stogie

I took this picture along the Hudson River.  I waited for an exhale to get some smoke into the picture.  But, I preferred this quick glimpse as he worked on his cigar.  I immediately named it "The Stogie" but did research the name slightly and learned a Stogie was originally a reference to a thin cheap cigar.  It has evolved though to be a pretty much generic description for any cigar.
