Man on Red Stairs

The red stairs at Duffy Square sit on top of the TKTS booth on Broadway. I was hoping to climb up and take a few shots early this morning, but they were not open yet. A couple of workers were cleaning them in the freezing wind. I took my gloves off for a few minutes to get the shot, and my hands were stinging when I was done. Every time I pass the stairs at night, I give up after seeing the long line of people waiting to climb them. I think they should get a bunch of these guys in the red coveralls and a Marilyn Monroe lookalike to do a classic dance number up there… somebody get to work on that.

What could be better than photographing the beautiful fall foliage you ask? How about photographing vintage airplanes with beautiful fall foliage in the background! I went to the October 12th air show this past Sunday at the Aerodrome. It was a perfect day… sunny, not too hot, not too cold, and not a even a whisper of a breeze. This shot is of a Great Lakes T2 taking off from the airfield. I’ll be posting a few more shots of the planes and people from the show, so stay tuned!
