I took this picture before the stock market made its correction. Maybe they’re not all rich kids anymore. They do look ready to follow their father’s footsteps and fall right into line, except for the one staring at me. He might be the lone rebel in that group. The one on the far left looks like a Kennedy! OK, enough of my gibberish…

Photographing NYC for 25 years, six of them while driving a New York City taxi. Trying very hard to capture the city as life unfolds, meaning I never stage any of my photos! Also I am a close confidant of the immortal Dave Beckerman, (quintessential NYC photographer) and owner of the first photography blog in the known universe.

  3. i only know the famous Kennedy generation from photographs and newsreel so i don’t see far left as one though he may be a young Trump. The boy over the right shoulder of the boy speculating if your a ‘perv’ or a model agency’ though looks like a young Bobby K’s profile. The other looky likey is the tall boy in shades far right. He reminds me of a 1960’s or thereabouts, film actor i’ve seen on afternoon matinees, Tim, Timothy something?

    If i was really on the ball i’d sign this post off, a la ‘Gossiip Girl’ but my misfiring memory isn’t coming up with the quote.
