Last week I stepped into a small elevator and the elevator stalled until another woman stepped. Once it started again a bike messenger with a bristly beard escaping his mask said, “You don’t scare easily.” I was in a good mood so I said, “I know I’m not going to die today.”
I saw Nan Goldin’s new exhibit, which I’ll revisit next week. Today I just want to highlight some street portraits I took on what turned out to be a great day.
