New York - Black & White Street Photography 2

It's been a busy little while and blogging has, once again, fallen by the wayside. I am now returning to finish this series and follow it up with Iceland!

New York

It took me a few shots to get this photo, trying not to alert this couple on their walk through central park that they were being followed and snapped by a random stranger! I'm happy with the result: soft focus, soft light, lots of leaves on the trees and two people just being together.

Mirrors are always great for seeing the world in a different way. This photo brings out for me the less glitzy, very ordinary side of New York life. It's not all about glass skyscrapers, there are second-hand stores with mirrors propped up outside and push bikes and there is space in the busyness, even if you can still see a taxi rushing past.
