San Gennaro Feast - NYC- Little Italy

I had some fun at San Gennaro feast in Little Italy, with one or two other NY photographers. Here are some of the pictures I took along the way at San Gennaro where you certainly find some colorful characters.
Picture
Enjoying his Cigar was this gent from "Mulberry Street Cigars".

Picture
One proud dad and his little cute daughter at San Gennaro. Hey, dad's sure cheaper than a pony ride, and you go longer too!

Picture
Interesting face and eyes, even behind the specs.

Picture
A sweet and patient little girl getting her face painted.

Picture
I think someone is feeling good about the results.  :-}

Picture
Ah ha, the face paint artist herself. She does a great job and the kids loved it.

Picture
Digging her adorable doggie.

Picture
Interesting way to take out your pet...what would the dog whisperer say about this one.

Picture
So I told him I would like to take his photo, and he said, I'd like a buck, I gave it to him, and voila. I respect entrepreneurship, and he was cool.

Picture
This little dude saw me shooting him, and shot me right back.

Picture
This cute little one felt she was supposed to smile, but just had some reservations when my big old camera pointed at her. Very cute indeed.

Picture
No, I am not a narcissist!

Picture
Well, maybe just a little bit, lol.

Picture
Why talk, we can text!

Picture
With all the hustle and bustle outside, this gent relaxes in a nice cool restaurant and reads his paper.

Picture
When I admired this nice Serbian girl's bicycle decor,
she said to me "I love my flowers". I like her style.

Picture
N.Y.'s Bravest kicking back during quiet time.

Picture
San Gennaro - dresses for sale.

Picture
I spotted this gentleman at the San Gennaro feast carrying a glass which happened to echo his jacket.....so I had to call him over for some photos and told him what I saw. He was cool about it as was his lady friend who called out " put up your arms so he can see them", which, as you can see, he did. They were a fun couple. I told her she was my honorary art director.

Picture
Like I said to him, you look so much better with this pretty lady by your side. He acknowledged.
It's the people and their good spirits that make San Gennaro fun.

Here are a few photos just added to the "Museum Days" portfolio in Gallery 1.
As usual, click to enlarge images.
Picture
Reflect on your sole.

Picture
This exhibit caught some attention. It is not hard to see why. Maybe I will head over to the flower shop... ya think?

Picture
A Brooklyn Museum visitor enjoying the art.

Picture
I took my liberties in Photoshop to create this image. The mirror and girl are real, their graphic portrayal has been given new life.


Picture
The reflection of the gentle sculpture coming off of the glass of the picture behind it, combined with a less than gentle picture composition, intrigued me. Click to enlarge for a clearer view

Picture
I've never been quite that hungry.

Picture
A very old map.

Picture
I appreciate the compositional synergies between the art in the background and foreground in this photo.


Picture
"Men in / on the Mirror"
If you were in the Brooklyn Museum recently, you would probably understand what is going on in this picture.
Ok I'll give it up... the man on the right is pasted onto the mirror... part of an exhibit. The reflection of the man in the green shirt was changed by me to black and white (mostly.. it needed to be matched in tone and slightly in hue to the man on the right). Well, you asked for it!

Picture

This delightful lady enjoyed my showing her this digital photo just taken of her as she was appreciating this wonderful artwork.

Brooklyn Museum 1st Saturday of this month of November.

The Brooklyn Museum has a great offering the first Saturday of each month, which includes music, dancing, lots of great art, and for all this, it is free admission. Food and drink are available also. The spirit and energy of the crowd is good...Art brings out the best in a crowd I would say.
It's so nice watching people enjoying art.
Click any image for a larger view.

Picture
This person just kicked back on one leg to read the description of the artwork. He enjoyed and relaxed, as did I.

Picture
These three females were seduced by the interesting and accomplished Justice Sonia Sotomayor, whose photo stands in front of them. It is part of a twenty five photo exhibit of the work of photographer Timothy Greenfield-Sanders, which is called "The Latino List".
Here is a link which at this current time is valid. http://www.brooklynmuseum.org/exhibitions/latino_list/
