THE KISS 2009
Uploaded: October 25, 2009
I hurriedly zigzagged my way through the city streets Friday. It looked like it was about to rain. I saw the young lovers across the street locked in their embrace. I quickened my pace hoping against hope that their moment would last long enough for me to get the shot. I crossed Broadway against the light making my settings as I scurried along trying to be inconspicuous because that's what I do. Well I got my shot without even stopping. I was in a hurry. As it turns out I had enough time to set up a tripod. I glanced over my shoulder just before turning the next corner and their moment hadn't ended yet.
