Considering how loyal I’ve been to black & white film the past 25 years, the decision to shoot color has been difficult…I think I should do it. Those who know me, know that I find discussing the technical side of photography very boring. I enjoy the stories about how a shot was taken much more than which lens or film was used. This picture is better because I had color film in my camera. I can always turn it into a grayscale file if needed. I promise not to bore anyone any further with this topic!

(If I can’t get decent results with the Kodak portra 800 film all bets are off)

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.

  1. Good choice here… It would be a crime to mono those lovely red lips and matching knit mini along with the purple coat. The background is rather B&W anyway, almost as if you chose to selective color the ladies.

    The girl to the right seems to be in deep thought opposed to the blond who looks like she’s ready to take you down.

    Fantastic!
