Sunshine, 38th Street

38th and 8th, nyc
Photo by myself around 38th Street and Eighth Avenue, on the West Side.

Don't be fooled by the glum faces and jackets. Spring has sprung!

We've had a blast of incredibly unseasonably warm weather in the last few days. It reached 73F (22C), Tuesday afternoon, which felt sultry.

People walked about wearing big silly grins. So. Not. New York.

Apologies once again for the sporadic posts.

Work has been demanding and my little Leica has been on the fritz. I've had to either lug around my Canon 40D with its huge lens, or use my little Canon point and shoot, which doesn't work so well.

The good news is, the Leica is getting repaired. I can't wait til it's back in my little hands!

I can see the light is different and it is crazy you had such high temperatures at once.

I am still waiting for this kind of temperatures.

Hi Bieb,
Yes, the drastic changes are hard to stomach. Each day the temperature goes up 10 degrees. oy.

Hi SC
I hope you get them soon!

it's kind of nice but a little too soon for being so hot.

They ARE in N.Y.C.
It is SUNNY, and not one of them are smiling!?

A lovely street-scape .... yes! Spring is on its way for you and shoppers will soon be shedding their coats.

My goodness Kitty, is that woman in the sunnies actually seeing you "doing it"? You know it's my quest in life to search for someone in your people shots who actually notices you're doing it!
