Photographs and thoughts on photography and camera collecting
I think I like this because initially the eye is drawn to the lightest object in the picture i.e. the table in the bottom left corner. Then the strong diagonal of the stair rail leads up and to the left where just to the right, in the top right corner there’s a small oriental head. Or at least I hope that’s what happens. Without the small head it wouldn’t be the same.

Croton Harmon Station through a window.
After my visit to New Hamburg in November 2012 I took the train back to Scarborough and had to change trains in Croton Harmon station. While waiting I took these pictures with my Sony NEX 5N and the rather eccentric RainbowImaging 35MM F1.7 TV Lens. For more information on the lens and more pictures taken with it see here:
New Hamburg, NY.

Arriving passenger.
It was late in the day (around 6:00pm) and getting quite dark. I was surprised that these came out as well as they did.
I don’t remember much about this picture other than that it was taken somewhere in New York City (along 42nd street I think) in May 2012. I think they were selling posters of some kind. I liked the animated expression of the woman on the right (her eyes almost seem to twinkle) and the concentration of the woman in the left as she speaks to someone on her phone.
Taken with a Sony NEX 5N and 18-55mm f3.5-5.6 OSS Kit Lens.
