Thanks, Frank Rick Bulent and Jack. No, Frank, she is not texting. Although the image doesn't show it very well, she is counting her money! I tried to get a better shot of her wad of bill, but she concealed it when she noticed what I was up to.
Originally, I started to frame the shot because we were in The City to see Penn and Teller's live Magic show just off Times Square in the Marquis. I wanted the two of them staring down at the Statue of Liberty, but when I saw what she was doing, I tried to capture that as well. There already was a controversy over costumed characters posing for photos with tourists and demanding money, but it has really escalated with the appearance of topless women wearing only g-strings and body paint: http://nypost.com/2015/04/22/topless-women-posing-with-underage-kids-in-times-square/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-ho72lbbaY http://photos.denverpost.com/2015/08/20/photos-women-go-topless-for-tips-in-times-square/#1 Dan Matyola http://www.pentaxphotogallery.com/danieljmatyola On Sun, Aug 23, 2015 at 10:39 AM, Jack Davis <[email protected]> wrote: > At least, two of the most vocal > atheists. > > J > > Sent from my iPhone > >> On Aug 23, 2015, at 7:25 AM, Knarf <[email protected]> wrote: >> >> It looks like she's texting! >> >> And with two of America's best-known atheists looking on. >> >> Very cool shot! >> >> :-) >> >> Cheers, >> >> frank >> >>> On 23 August, 2015 8:50:35 AM EDT, "Daniel J.
