times square in the early hours







my first night's sleep in new york wasn't that clever.
i woke up at 3.30am wide awake.

i decided that i'd go for a walk to times square and take a self-portrait.
i posted this last week but here it is again...








i also took a few shots of times square while it was empty
bless him... look at the security guard in the middle of the photo.
his job ? to keep people off the illuminated red steps behind him.







i didn't venture onto the steps but it wouldn't have been difficult
hmmm... at least somebody was having no problem sleeping.







it was about 4am. it was absolutely freezing cold. as you can see from my
self-portrait, i had a woolly hat, gloves and many layers on. the snoozing security guard
was also well protected against the bitter cold.

however, not everybody walking around at 4am was that well wrapped up...
ay carumba !
