thursday in the hood

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

The photo of Spiderman was taken Thanksgiving morning 198o-ish.

I say 'ish' because I cant remember the precise year, what I do remember getting up and out of the apartment by 7:30 a.m. dressed for cold and wet.

My 35mm Canon with the 70/280mm lens in hand I stood in the cold and wet on the corner of 76 St/Central Park West'til well after 10 a.m. when the Macy's Parade began and the policemen who'd been kibuttzing me let me walk out into the path of the parade and snap this photo.

I took just this one.

I gave a print to someone, thank you Irwin, who was kind enough to make me a JPG of it so I could post it today.
