Cool shot, great ironic juxtaposition...

but living in NY and knowing what is going on in Times Square - my _first_ thought was, I hope you didn't get beaten up!

I think that "she" is a "he" btw

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:

It looks like she's texting!

And with two of America's best-known atheists looking on.

Very cool shot!
