Street Photograph of the Day | Bedstuy | Brooklyn, NY
Sometimes when you shoot it feels like you are chasing the light and the moment. The photographs are all fleeting. They disappear just before you arrive. Always out of reach or on the other side of the street. When you finally see a photograph, the traffic seems to block your way, as you try and dash across Broadway, the photo vanishing just as you get there.
This was the case yesterday. I was walking up Broadway in Brooklyn. The light was a good and clean winter light, shining through the overhead tracks, but I could not seem to get a single decent photograph. They all proved elusive.
I arrived at Flushing and Broadway. There was soul music playing on the corner near a man selling sunglasses. A store front was ripped open, and Chinese construction workers wetted down a muddy street, while people crisscrossed the intersection.
A saw this girl coming down the street with matted hair, and a man entered the frame from the left the light catching his face. I pushed the camera toward his face and snapped the photograph.
