I also love the movement you allowed us to feel in this shot – and even the different people in the shot seem to capture so much diversity – (man with bags, lady with purse, then different folks descending the stairs….)
NYC has awesome “street life – and I can’t wait to go back…..
nice shot (even though I was expecting a upshot from the water….)

NYC does have awesome street life. I always promise myself that I’ll go out more often to take pictures of it… maybe this summer!
Thanks!! :-)
