Waiting Together, along Fifth Avenue

Photo by myself around 34th Street and Fifth Avenue, in Midtown.

An older couple stood patiently, waiting for the light to change.

For some reason, this photo has been languishing in my stash for a while. I would quickly pass it by, judging it solely on whether the image shows enough action, variety, New York interest, etc.

But last night, I had some time, and I flipped through images with more thoughtfulness. I'm glad I did.

The sidewalks in New York can be terribly uneven. Fortunately in recent years, the city has taken to shaving down uneven parts. It's still best to walk with care, if you're in a crowd or if you're older.
