A Walk through Lower Manhattan

6/7/2014

0 Comments

 
I took a walk through lower Manhattan with some fellow lightjackers on a quest to take photos and have some fun, which for me are two things that usually go together. Have a look.

Sunshine and colorful balloons- a happy thing.

Vault Lights- fitted glass lenses set within cast-iron panels. They are embedded into the sidewalks in front of NYC building storefronts.
More recently the glass lenses have been embedded into reinforced concrete for strength and safety reasons.

Another example of a Vault Light element. Some of the glass lenses may be missing in these old units.

I saw this interesting leaf on the ground with its color and flowing curves, contrasted by the cement backdrop having straight lines and no color except for that wonderful splash of sunshine, tying it all together. Bravo sunshine. Oh you're are thinking that I forgot to recognize that little petal's contribution to this background/ subject integration? It is duly noted.

Picture
Break time.

This very nice man said he makes all these canes himself with wood he finds, and then varnishes them with at least 4 coats.

I always am enticed by shadows and reflections.

Interesting lighting in this photo: The sunny lighting on her face was actually coming from a reflection off a large building in front of her. The actual sun was behind her.
