A great photo again Patti 🙂 The look and attitude of the Chelsea girl, shadows and silhouettes on the pavement, scaffolding as framing and three distinct sections of the photo 🙂
Hi, Patti! I’ve been looking at this photo for days. Trying to be able to like and leave a comment. After a week of on-off communication with the Happiness Engineers at WP, and having sent a screen shot of the pop-up denying me access to comment on your blog, they told me to change from Chrome to Firefox… I like this photo very much. Interesting composition and shadow/light with details while you maintain the focus on the girl. Masterful, I think. 🙂
Sorry to hear you have been having so many problems George, thank you so much for the effort and your very kind words! I would be so happy with WP engineer problems, my laptop is seriously lagging 😦 either that or my wireless connection is sluggish . . . Always lovely to hear from you and lovelier to see what you have been up to in your garden of delights!
There’s something 70’s about the ladies in this image but I’m unsure why – perhaps it’s the long straight hair and the glasses? It’s a fascinating capture 🙂
“Quiet Days in Chelsea” – do you know “Quiet days in Clichy” by Henry Miller? Henry Miller wrote his trilogy Sexus – Nexus – Plexus in the public library at the 42nd street …
Giving the Chelsea girls their due.
I can see she is a Chelsea girl. They are still around?!
Bente, Chelsea girl lives! Forever!
Thanks to Nico. Are they restoring it? Cheers, harrie.
great look!
She does look great!
of course 🙂
Love this! Such attitude…
it’s a great perspective..with the humans – “the verticals” I would call them – supporting the restoring..Excellent one!
I remember you well from the Chelsea Hotel…
…excellent picture!
Elegance + attitude. I could only aspire to it! Great shot.
A favorite place and area in NYC…….great photo!
Hope that’s not her ciggy butt on the pavement. .;)
Great shot with her looking over her sunnies.
I like her posture and crossed-leg stance, peeping back at you from behind those shades.
She’s so cool!
I’m glad that the Chelsea skinheads are no longer a prominent fixture in the area . . . I think.
Patti, your eye is unerring. Love your work.
Tom
Great shot!
are you talkin’ to me?
This is an intriguing composition. Everything is just in the right place…
Fantastic shot and a perfect subject! Plus, a nice bit of nostalgia for me.
Very cool Patti. A wonderful street life shot.
Great shot – what a cool customer!
She most definitely has that Über cool look about her !
I haven’t seen attitude like that in a long time.

There must be something in the wireless air . . .

I love the cinematic feel of this shot Patti. Fab composition as always. As George says…masterful! 🙂
Thank you so much Madhu! I wasn’t sure how it was going to turn out, what with the scaffolding etc. but always fun trying.
loved that pose and look 🙂
Thank you Joshi, she does it well!
The place where Sid Vicious allegedly stabbed his girlfriend to death in 1978… great picture , Patti !
The very place indeed Geert . . . .

Nostalgia is always just around the corner Martin!
could be the cover of a novel book…
Frizz, what would you suggest as the title?

Woo hoo!
A little plain in their clothing — but suggesting to me quite another type of street girl!
Never underestimate the power of plain!!! 🙂
Love the triangle of humans, never mind the Chelsea!
The random order of geometry, somehow it falls into place. Thank you Elena!
Long live the Chelsea girl! 🙂
To Chelsea girls everywhere!
🙂
Wow. Hello there! 😀
wonderful candid
