guarding MOMA
posted in Wednesday Picture Day |I went to the Museum of Modern Art during my last trip to NY and tried to catch some decent shots of people. People doing ordinary things without noticing me taking a picture of them. Last week I showed you the guy with at the hot dog stand. This week we have the MOMA guard in the outdoor sculpture garden.
I call this piece “Focused Tai Chi by Bored Guard Outdoors”
As near as I could tell, his biggest responsibility was keeping people from eating on this side of the sculpture garden. You see, you could buy ice cream and candy and drinks on the other side of that big orange sculpture, but you couldn’t bring them to this side. An elderly couple learned that the hard way. I just noticed he has some sort of bandage on his left index finger. Maybe he pointed it too hard at someone eating a snowpop. BTW, I put some fancy “effects” on here using Google’s Picassa software. Yeah, I know it’s not photoshop but it can still do some neat stuff quickly.
