Here are some pictures of female Ruby-throated Hummingbirds at a large patch of Bee balm flowers in our yard. The hummes are attracted to the bright red flowers.   Dave

I wrote:  As a street photographer wanna-be, I need to travel to a city to practice “Street Photography” and photograph street life.  I just returned from such a trip to Manhattan, New York City.  

You and future generations may look at my photos and wonder about NYC modes of transportation, skimpy fashions, tattoos, hair styles, and business dress. You may see we have new roles for Men, Women, Parents, and “They”. 

Anyway, the purpose of my “Street Photography,” is to show you things I saw out there that made me wonder and laugh.  I apologize for my inexperience but hope that I have made enough progress as a street photographer to hold your interest. – Enjoy! Oh by-the-way I have hundreds more to post here in the future – popular places like Time Square, Central Park, and Wall Street – so be ready to come back to this blog.

Did he scooter to meet the man in green – now they walk with folded scooter?

Lunch line-up at take-out from Sweetgreen on Wall Street – Was the lady leaving sent to pickup lunch for whole office?

More deliveries – Is it a US postage truck, what is on the push cart, waiting to cross the road, carrying, is HalalFood a lunch wagon?

Wall Street business dress?

In front of the NYC Court House – What is Gloria selling to the man in a business suit of the type I wore 50 years ago? – He needed the cane, but he said he really carried it for safety when he walked the streets of NYC

The modern business lady? – near Wall Street

What is being handed out the door? Did the young man  in white business shirt and iPhone even notice?

It takes a lot of deliveries to keep NYC functioning?

Why are they walking the Brooklyn Bridge ?- To get to the other side of course.

Oh my, did you notice this man is not walking the Brooklyn Bridge – he is riding a motorized wheel?

Young teenager off to work – On his scooter – My Grandson

More pushing/moving in NYC near Time Square – Why?

 

Is she asking the hotel desk to clean her room while she scooters off to work for the day?

Do you have to read your iPhone to ride the subway?

What do you think this guy is moving? It takes a lot of moved stuff to keep NYC functioning

As you swing through life enjoy watching humans and my blog ’cause I have many more photos of humans on the streets
