From the day
Perspective: The Street Photographer · Sight
The glare from a passing sedan catches the chrome of a businessman’s BlackBerry as he marches past a newsstand, his power suit sharp against the gritty sidewalk. I frame a shot of a teenager in baggy cargo pants leaning over a stack of Pokémon cards, the neon glow of the corner deli flickering over a sign advertising a loaf of bread for **$0.79**, a price that feels like the last relic of the old world. Everything is moving faster now, vibrating with the static of the **information superhighway** while TLC’s "No Scrubs" blares from a distant car window. I click the shutter on a political poster of Whitman, capturing a moment trapped between the looming digital future and the analog dust of a Manhattan Monday.
