The Photodiarist In Color

Colorful People

New York: 7th Avenue and 4th Street

Inspiration: I really love her colorful mix. Especially on a day as gray as this one. 

Photo Shoot

New York: Brooklyn Heights

Inspiration: I love it when I snap people in the midst of photo-shoots. They are in this focused "I'm getting my picture taken" mode that they hardly notice the "other" photographer snapping away. 

Full-On Fur

New York: Bryant Park

Inspiration: This gentleman loved the camera! And he enjoyed telling me about his penchant for, and his closet full of, furs and more furs and even more furs - real and faux. Apparently, this ensemble is faux mink - a gift from his children. 

Portraits: Orange

New York: Bryant Park

Inspiration: Orange . . . a most welcome color today, which is rainy and gray. 

Portraits: Karmen Pedaru

New York: Bryant Park

Inspiration: Karmen Pedaru in between shows. She is truly stunning. Bold red lipstick doesn't hurt either.

Portraits: Furry Arms

New York: Bryant Park

Inspiration: The title of this photo implies something quite horrible, I know. But in fact, these "furry arms" are quite lovely. 

Psychedelic Fur

New York: Sixth Avenue

Inspiration: I ran for this shot. I dodged a few moving cars for this shot. I probably knocked someone over too (sorry). It was worth it.   

Totally Cool: Richard Renda

New York: Bryant Park

Inspiration: Steve Tyler's doppelganger? Or Mick Jagger's? In that jacket, he may even be the doppelganger of Big Bird (although, he rocks it well). In any event, Mr. "Totally Cool" Renda was one of the producers of fashion shows at New York Fashion Week.  For more about his whole gig, go here.

Hooded

New York: Bryant Park

Inspiration: I loved the combination of her red hair and lipstick.  So, today was the last day of New York Fashion Week . . . it will be missed! But I look forward to what Polka Dot (a/k/a Jill) of Street Style London will be saying and showing us about London's Fashion Week, which begins today! And I still have a few more photographs taken this week to share with you.

Mix Masters

New York: Bryant Park

Inspiration: Another example of mixing and matching that I'd never be able to pull off.
