That Moment of Pause

Posted on May 28, 2015October 16, 2022 by David Barker

Not everything in New York City moves at the pace of a George Gershwin piece. People DO take time to pause and reflect. Last week I was privileged to capture some of those moments.

Gazing over 10th Ave from the High Line.
Reclining on the High Line.

Cyclist pauses by the Conservatory Water in Central Park.

Leaning against the wall at Chelsea Market.

Here, it’s the window that does the reflecting. It’s the shoe that demands the pause.
