On Saturday, September 22nd the Amalgamated held their annual barbecue in the plaza between the two towers. It was a little cold and windy that day and I tried to set up a background to continue my series on neighbors for the 85th anniversary celebration. It was a vain attempt even with the help of cooperators and the amalgamated staff as the wind kept blowing the background around.
Instead I decided to take some candid and posed shots without a background. The three young ladies above were interested in having their pictures taken and I agreed to take their photos together and separately with the hope of using their images in the 85th anniversary show. It was a nice afternoon even with the wind as everyone enjoyed themselves.
The project is progressing nicely and I will probably do one more shoot at the 85th Anniversary Lunch. Gary and Walter have put together a preliminary edit for the video and it looks good. More is needed and we will meet to discuss what else needs to be done. I hope to see a good crowd at the show in late November or December.
