Mood, West 42nd

Late last fall, I returned to New York City for my first full-fledged photo safari to gather inspiration and recharge my creative batteries following the pandemic. It was so good to get back. I had a whole spectrum of weather during my visit, from surprisingly mild, sunny days to cool, rainy days more typical of the season. I felt like this allowed me to see the city in many different ways, and it was extremely gratifying to collect tons of ideas within a short amount of time. As the title suggests, I caught this subject in midtown. The late autumn season created a delightfully moody sky that contrasted perfectly with the lights, activity, and colors of the city below. I loved the angles and energy within this moment. The initial study of this motif is also available, Study, West 42nd Street.
