I spoke to this gentleman and I forgot to ask his name. He saw me photographing and we started to have a discussion while the train was at a halt. "It's empty," he said. "But, there are some people who still have work in the city and then need to go home." We both knew he was one of those people. We discussed about how empty the trains have been and how it is a good thing, it's easier to control the interactions and enforece social distance. He worried about getting the Corona Virus. He has a wife and children to go gome to every night. I hope that wherever he is, his health is intact as well as his family's Photos taken at LIRR Station 61st stop. Woodside, Queens

We took a walk to the market today. It was a beautiful day in NYC as it was 67°. The breeze was the perfect touch for today's warmer climate. As we walked, I saw this make facing the sun. "He's not wearing a mask!" I thought. To be honest, I'm not surprised. The cotton masks we have been wearing are no longer feeling comfortable anymore as the weather is getting warmer. As we kept getting closer, I noticed that his mask was in his left hand. A sense of reliefe came over me and I thought, "That makes sense..." I kept looking at him due with a sense of nostalgia-- the ability to "be out" and enjopy the day for what it was, without worrying what one may catch. No matter how many people passed by he would not break his concentration nor his stance. he never lifted an eyelid or tried to place the mask back on his face. It looked like the bond between him and the sun was sacred and he was guaranteed protection. With his power stance, his eyes shut tight, and his wide smile- it even looked like he was lost in a conversation with our giant star and was trying to negotiate a deal. I think he was winning.....

As I was waiting for my Lyft to pick me up from the local Stop & Shop, I spotted a flock of pigeons across the market. They seemed to be pecking the ground as if they were being fed, a visual you don't often see these days as we are all instructed to limit our outings and follow through with the mandated quarantine. I saw this man with a bag of Wonderbread, breaking it into pieces and making sure each bird recieved a ration. I approached him, "You don't see this anymore," as I pointed to the birds and the bread on the ground. He smiled and then he replied, "The people who used to come and feed 'em aren't able to come anymore. But, we gottri take turns and help out these little guys." He informed me that he was on his break from working at the Stop & Shop. He and some other colleagues come out with food items to make sure that the birds and the squirrels who once depended on the generosity of others- have something in their stomachs by the end of each day.

Finally, a stroll

March 18. 2020: I finally took a strol l around the neighborhood. I managed to squeeze in sometime before an on line work-related meeting. Looking out the window wasn't enough. In fact, it was torturing me. On a beautiful, sunny, near-perfect-weather day, with history in the making all around, I was jonesing to shoot. To not photograph felt like I was sitting inside Edgar Allen Poe's 'The Tell-Tale Heart'. I didn't kill anyone. Nor have I been contemplating it. But, to not go out and photograph has the same taunting and haunting effect as the heartbeat in Poe's 1843 tale. Photographed in Woodside & Jackson Heights, Queens
