Street Photography – New York City’s Avenue of the Strongest
Avenue of the Strongest
This avenue’s name was a curious one and I had not heard of it nor was it shown in some of the maps. Whilst most New Yorkers are familiar with “Avenue of the Americas” this “Avenue of the Strongest” was new to some New Yorkers I spoke with.
New York Street Photography – Bride & Groom at Hotdog Stand
Bride & Groom at HotDog Stand
The essence of street photography is to either capture what will not ever come by again or to capture everyday elements in a manner that most do not normally “see” as people pass on by. This shot of a newly wed couple was taken outside the New York municipal office for registration of new marriages. What surprised me after the shot was taken was the expression of the event photographer. Of course seeing the bridal couple buying and having hotdogs on their wedding day – was a surprise to me.

Street Photography – New York Y Joint Hydrant
Y Fire Hydrant
I saw this bright brass and red hydrant sticking out of a wall of a building, on a street I was walking along – returning from Central Park. I realised straight away, that it would make for a wonderful full sized mural on a wall. Inexplicable.

The Museum of Modern Art in New York City is a mecca for art lovers. Regardless whether one is contemporary or modern art lover, the MOMA showcases some of the most fabulous works of modern times. Andy Warhol a native New Yorker has many dramatic pieces displayed at the MOMA and this photographed here was singularly featured on a wall. The proportions here belies the overall size of the work. Regardless of whether one is able to appreciate Warhol’s work as art, his work has made a deep impact on the psyche of New Yorkers and Americans. Many of his works are now seen as iconic representation of his generation.
Web of Brooklyn Bridge

The Brooklyn Bridge is an old bridge that is undergoing some repairs but it’s still a popular place for both tourists and visitors to the city. Sunset is the best time to be there to catch the spectacular light on the bridge and the twilight colours over the water. This image was converted to black and white to take away any distraction of the two key focal points of the image. The skyline and the intricate lattice of steel cables.
