Snapshot

Photo: S. Banos

A neatly composed snapshot set against the skyline of a city featuring family, couples and newlyweds alike- if only life could be as meticulously framed and organized as that photographer seems to will his camera.

The crane atop that massive skyscraper will soon no longer be there, just as that building when completed, will replace the space once occupied by two former, more illustrious tenants. How will the lives of those pictured evolve and transcend? And what of their children, and the lives of all those in the ever changing landscape beyond the towers they now accentuate? How will all their shadows fare?

Nice work, Stan.

Thanks, Noah. Maybe there's hope for me after all, taking weddings with Tri-X for that down home and gritty, war time look!

Actually, took 3 other unrelated shots on same roll that I'm a lot more excited about than this one.
Soon come...
