A remarkable work of art Chris...it looks as if it could have possibly came straight out of the roaring 20`s. Absolutely gorgeous...true gold medal art....L/V/F....love it
Chris Lord replied:
If there is one thing NY has in spades it's extroverted folks dying to be photographed. All one has to do is point the camera at them. :-) Delighted that you enjoyed this one Dave. Thank you very much for saying so, truly appreciated.

Terrific Chris. It has a vintage look. I might have been there the same time you were. v/f
Chris Lord replied:
Almost that time of the year again! That parade always signals the start of summer for me. Maybe I'll bump into you this year. Thanks for the kind words, f and v. Much appreciated Madeline, cheers.

Chris Lord replied:
That parade is so much fun to shoot and I actually have a bunch of clean (as in dressed :-) ) images to work with but this one was my favorite! So glad you enjoyed it Joan, really appreciate you stopping by to comment, Thanks very much.

This is my favorite shot from over a thousand exposures that day! A little PS tweaking and voila! So glad you like it Steve, thanks very much for checking it out and leaving feedback, cheers.
