The kindness of strangers
Image by Ed Yourdon
I had an appointment to meet someone on Central Park West and 66th Street (essentially across the street from the famous "Tavern on the Green" restaurant), and — as usual — arrived half an hour early. So I sat on a park bench, and watched a wide spectrum of humanity walk, stroll, and ride past me. Tourists, students, babysitters, friends, lovers, bicycle-powered messengers, retired people, and joggers moved past me, usually paying no attention to me at all…
I had my camera on my lap, pointed more-or-less straight ahead, with the zoom set to an 18mm wide-angle setting. With a couple of exceptions (including this photo), I didn’t bother aiming, focusing, or even raising the camera to my eye; if the picture looked like it might be interesting, I just pressed the shutter button at the appropriate moment.
I took three or four pictures of this man as he navigated slowly across 66th Street on Central Park West (just behind where this picture was taken), stopping every few feet to catch his breath. When he reached a tree that’s just out of sight on the right side of this picture, he decided to put his arm out and rest a while longer; you can see that in the previous picture of this sequence …
Seeing his condition, a very nice couple approached him and asked if they could help walk him to the bus-stop, which was about twenty feet further ahead (indeed, you can see the approaching bus in the background). They helped him onto the bus, and then walked away…
And, yes, I did notice the reaction of the woman on the left side of the picture: I felt that she was demonstrating the reaction that all of us would have felt if we were there, in person, to witness this little vignette of humanity…

Note: on Oct 3, 2009 I made some minor edits to this photo. Primarily, I decreased the extent of shadows in the coat worn by the woman on the left, so you could see more details. There were a few other "hot spots" and "cold spots" throughout the photo that I was able to adjust, too. And I made a modest increase in the color saturation of the faces of all four individuals, as well as increasing the vibrancy of non-skin-tone colors. I do think it helps to be able to see more details of the woman’s dark raincoat, but aside from that, none of these "tweaks" are particularly germane to the main emphasis of the photo…

30 Days of Gratitude- Day 22
Today I am grateful for the internet, a great way to keep in touch with family and friends. Also a great source of knowledge.
I learnt a lot about layers and photo montages over the internet. I added a couple of wings to the watch and now have an image called "Time Flies"

-All of a suden I saw a being with two heads, four legs and just one heart! It was moving at unison guided by a sort of music from paradise. Then carefuly perceived that really, it was a couple dancing argentine tango meanwhile sorroundings were under quake, a shaking motion!

Just take a careful watch to this pic, click on it and later on, click on all sizes and you’ll see clearly what I am talking about! By the way she´s Nailea Norvind!

So what do you think is going on in this ‘slice of life’?
The scene is downtown Naples which is primarily tourist-oriented, though locals will come out to shop and stroll, as well. The couple appear to be together (physically) sharing a bench, but apart in thoughts and conversation. What are they thinking about, talking about? What emotions appear to be evident? What values might also be conveyed?
Just another day in the life of people-watching – managed to snap this photo right before the light turned green! 8th St & 5th Ave S, Naples, FL
