Now THERE's ambiguity! Good shooting, Peter.

Really excellent work.
Did it jump out at you or did it require patience?

Thanks. After seeing the poster I knew it would just be a matter of time before an appropriate subject would pass by. It was about a fifteen minuet wait. Many variations on this made during my wait.

Not just "F/8 and Be there," but more like "F/8 and Be there for as long as it takes."

You are making good use of the goldmines that you come across.

Patience isn't something I have. Five minutes in one place is enough especially if people start noticing you. Peter your patience has paid off here and rewarded you with a fine image.

I always get noticed...I find it's learning to get comfortable hanging around in any spot, and then you disappear. Many of the places I shoot, I visit often, very often. By waiting and looking lots comes my way. Remember this is NYC, crazy and ever changing. Within seconds the cast of characters refreshes.

While I like the shot I fail to see what's so ambiguous about it !?

"When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean -- neither more nor less."
"The question is," said Alice, "whether you can make words mean so many different things."
"The question is," said Humpty Dumpty, "which is to be master - - that's all."

Nice...

Well done! Compelling little tableau, that photo.
