of the city - a photo on Flickriver

of the city

            This gentleman was playing not far from the hotel where I was staying. It was early in the morning and overcast. He'd strategically placed himself across from a Starbucks. I added a dollar to his case and asked if I could take a few pictures. He said go ahead. There wasn't any way to talk as he was also singing.

I took about 12 from a variety of angles and opted for this one. I tried black and white but ended up going with color because the yellow of the cabs really added something to the overall composition.
