The Photographer


The Photographer, originally uploaded by ArcherVision.

So my friend, Dave and I went to NYC to find him a new dejembe. And of course I bring my small Nikon with me where ever I go. We had 5 or 6 music stores marked off on Dave's nifty printed map of Manhatten. We also wanted to go up to The Top Of the Rock, and see the city from the 70th floor.

I came across this interesting photog on 50th street near the entrance and asked him if I could snap his pic. He did not even hesitate and said, cool as can be: "You got one shot". I thought it was pretty cool, turning the table on a guy that most likely has taken more photos from this very spot than I have taken anywhere. But something tells me he has found him self on the other end of the camera plenty.

I really should visit the big apple more frequently. Thanks, Dave. And enjoy that drum!
