great photos Mike! I love NYC, to me it is so exciting, so mysterious, so vibrant. I love seeing other people's pictures of NYC - well, of any place, really, because I don't take pictures. I have a camera and everything, but I just never take pictures of anything. I never think to, I guess. Maybe I'm too wrapped up in the moment... I guess I like to remember things in my own way. I have always loved photography, though, when other people do it!
i will say, there are times when i put down the camera deliberately for that reason - in a profound paradox, trying too hard to capture the moment might cause you to miss it...i have only recently - couple of years - been "serious" about photos...
new york is a great city - so much to do - so many cultural events - art, music, etc...i got there late fri afternoon and left monday morning - and it seemed like i got a couple years worth of cultural activities in by my local standards! and even then, didn't even scratch the surface of what ny has to offer...
and i don't find the stereotypes about new yorkers to be true - great people - that being said, as previously documented, i need more space and a bit less stimulation!
