Windy City (not Chicago)

I was recently in NYC and my timing had me there while the remnants

of hurricane/tropical storm/tropical depression Ernesto were moving

through the area. The wind wasn't much of an issue, but one

sidestreet was being hit pretty hard by gusts being funneled between

some buildings. I started snapping pics of unsuspecting people

carrying their umbrellas being hit by these gusts - I thought this

shot was the most interesting. I intentionally went with a slow

shutter speed to try to capture the movement of the wind. Did that

work? Thoughts?

Windy day... I like this unsharpness here and the red in front. Nicely composed.

Great shot. It very nicely documents the diffuculty of walking around in such weather. I like the bent umbrellas--they really communicate how hard the wind is blowing.
