Well, I don’t know what it says about me but I noticed the boy long before I noticed the woman’s tights. Great image and tonality.

Paul, you have definitely captured the hectic pace of a city. I made the visit to Seattle today and your recent images came to mind on the ferry ride home back to the less crowded space of the peninsula. I think the one from ‘So many images. So many thoughts.’ is my favorite so far as it brings my focus to one person in the midst of chaos. Great stuff and I am not sure I could handle it as well.

@Earl and Monte: Well, it’s rather difficult not to notice such things! There was this type of chaos, and clothing everywhere.

I would not have noticed the rear if you two hadn’t brought it up, lol. The little boy looks much like I would expect to look myself in all that people-crammed space–dazed. And his shirt is very reminiscent of a fireman’s, indeed.

I, like Monte, took a few moments to notice the boy. My eyes were first drawned to those wearing white, then the women’s rear (I’m a guy too) and finally to the boy–but I didn’t linger long on him initially. While I find him interesting, I feel he’s overpowered by the rest of the photo. Maybe I’m missing that energy and thoughts you felt/had when you took this shot. I do like it but perhaps not for the same reasons.

That yahoo is all over the place! LOL

Being the man I am, my first point of focus was the woman’s tights. After my eyes adjusted I started to roam around and noticed the boy. The image is busy, what you would expect in NYC. He does have a grip of his mothers hand or maybe she has a tight grip on him. His clothing catch my attention as they are very much like a fireman’s coat. This image speaks to me of the chaos and noise of the city life.
