Older Bicycle Messenger, Broadway

/images/0000/1909/older_bicycle_messanger_broadway-2.jpg

I see this guy frequently zooming all over Soho. I'm assuming that he's a bicycle messenger and, while it's tough to tell his exact age, he is clearly much older than the average messenger here in NY.

It's nice to see someone out of the norm doing one of the most physically tough (and dangerous) jobs in the city. Maybe I'll figure out a way to get him to stop for me one of these days. How? I'm not quite sure.

Never Hide, East Village

It's about time for a nice color photo to break up all of this black and white I've been doing lately. I love the colors in this one.

Applying For a Job, Dunkin' Donuts

I came across this guy coming out of a Dunkin' Donuts with an application in hand, filling it out on a newspaper stand outside. I think it shows an intimate glimpse into the struggles many people are having right now, and how hard it is to find any job.

I wish I had caught a little bit more of his hands here, but I really didn't want to disturb him and so I took a very quick shot and kept going.
