Central Park 2010

I tried to describe this picture to a friend of mine, but sometimes the essence of a photo is lost in translation. I was struck by the fact that this woman, who was clearly on her last legs was every bit as happy as the young kids who have their entire lives to look forward to. They were watching a juggling clown perform his tricks. I see too many old people sitting around this town waiting to die, and found this scene refreshing…
