country kids, meet the big city.

this past weekend our class was given the opportunity to visit new york for the PDN PhotoPlus International Conference + Expo, thanks to a lovely scholarship from our school's photo foundation. lots of fun toys to look through on the showroom floor. lots of schmoozing. not as much time as i hoped there would be to get around the city and take lots of pictures.

for many of the toddlers in the department, this was their first trip to new york. i found myself jealous of them as they stared up at the skyscrapers for the first time in awe. i wish the novelty of the city still existed for me. instead i was annoyed by the crowds, the cost of a beer...and the snow! (in october???)

maybe i've been living in the boonies too long, but i was actually happy to get back to north carolina.

  1. Hey, I was one of those first timers! I definitely agree with not having enough time... But I love this shot, and how you managed to capture just a single pedestrian in he busy streets.
