While the Christmas Season has begun and Times Square NYC is aglow, outside the bright lights the sad realities of life continue. On 7th Avenue and 52nd Street a homeless man huddles with all his worldly possessions, even as revelers rush to join the nearby merriment. The humorous signs belie the decrepitude of his state. December 1 2017
Leica SL, 24-90mm lens at 36 mm. ISO 400. f3.5, 1/2 sec exposure, handheld. While I had my tripod with me, I needed to handhold the camera since the sidewalk was so filled with passing holiday revelers that setting it up would have posed significant risk.
