Too Cool, on 42nd Street

42nd Street, nyc
Photo by myself on 42nd Street and Fifth Avenue.

Yes, another one of those 'people crossing the street ' photos. I just can't help myself.

Some folks are fashionably dressed. Others are tuned out. All are in a rush.

Apologies for the big break from posting. I went out to LA to see my family and enjoyed a few days in the sun.

Going to the West Coast is always a bit of culture shock. Not just the driving but the absence of walking. And the absence of being in a crowd all the time, with another crowd walking toward you.

Now back in town, It seems I'm the only person in this city still wearing flip flops. It is decidedly Fall and everyone is wearing proper shoes. It's been about 70F every day (21 degrees Celsius)....perfect Fall days.

This photo proves that one in ten people will have a smile on their face.

I just got back from London and people were wearing flip flops even though I was cold most of the time!

PS
I'm still wearing flip flops too - don't put yours away, I believe we are headed for an Indian Summer experience this week.

I love it when you take these photos Kitty,but you know I'm going to say it - where have you got the camera and noone (as usual) appears to be looking at you!! :)
