Journal Image - Candid Street Photo & Motion Photography

It is not only the usual afternoon strollers and children who are preparing for the spring and the coming summer, a lot of street musicians and chess players are spending time in Bryant Park. These two gentlemen enjoyed the mild warmth of the early spring afternoon and did not seem to mind the intermittent chill playing chess.

I spend some time watching them play. And with their permission took a few pictures. I did not use the flash which could have distracted them and had to hold the camera very steady at the low shutter speed.
