Black Lives Matter
In these tense political times it's good to know that there are places that send clear, powerful signals that we do matter, and are welcomed.
Gap Toothed Smile
New York City is all about the hustle. However, it can be a place where unusual, funny things can appear just about anyplace. You just have to keep your eyes open.

Oye Como Va Mural on 110th Street
It's fitting that a mural for world-famous musician Tito Puente is in Spanish Harlem. He was born and raised there. He was also Puerto Rican, which is the largest ethnic group in East Harlem.
I really enjoy the composition of this shot, with the pedestrian moving into Tito's left hand.
Park Bench at Thomas Jefferson Park
It was a cold day in East Harlem. I saw this bench and took a few shots in an attempt to capture the ring of circles extending into the horizon.
It's a simple image, yet it's become one of my most requested photo prints. People really enjoy it both in color as well as black-and-white.

Little Boys and Sojourner Truth
Sojourner Truth was formerly enslaved, then went on to become an abolitionist, women's rights advocate, as well as an active supporter of the Union Army during the Civil War. She wanted Black people to be free. So it makes me glad to see her mural, smiling down on Harlem's children.

Walking the Dog
The variety in this photo makes it an enjoyable one for me. I especially like how the dog is framed by the "V" formed by the man's legs.

Greeting from Harlem
Run Free
This is a mural by a UK based artist named Dreph. It's part of a series of murals done by a number of artists. They were completed in September of 2019 along 125th street in Harlem.
The humanity on display in this particular mural--the smile, along with the warm eyes--is making it a fast favorite of mine. Come to find out that the image isn't fictional. Dreph chose to capture a Harlem homeless resident named Country. What an amazing gesture.
