I went to see the Garry Winogrand show at the Met today. Extraordinary. Resolved to turn to street photography in earnest, given that the great theater of NYC is right outside my door. I especially liked Winogrand's succinct explanation for his art: "I photograph to find out what something will look like photographed."

It was also lovely to see the newly refurbished fountain, trees and rest area recently unveiled in front of the museum. The fountain area is large--easily millions of dollars' worth of real estate---but it reminded me again of how we treasure the spectacle of water. As I photographed the fountain's shimmery surface, I was eager to see what it would look like photographed.
