Patience and A Little Bit of Luck
I’ve walked by the Noodle Bar on Carmine Street in Greenwich Village numerous times, but on this rainy Saturday afternoon the light was soft and the colors evoked the feeling of a Hopper painting.
I saw people walking by with umbrellas and thought this might make for an interesting photo.
I waited and of course, as luck would have it, people stopped walking by.
The composition was nice, but thought if a human element could be added somehow the image would be much more striking.
Finally out of the corner of my eye I saw a person approaching with a light blue umbrella. Two snaps and she was gone…..but I got it! I was that sure.
One thing I’ve learned over the years, patience and a little bit of luck.
