..after shooting some moleman series shots at The Rock, while i was waiting for wifey.. i decided to set up the tripod, focus on something and just mashed that shutter button.. call it an offshoot of the moleman series or what not, so here’s another series of shots that came out from a few minutes of boredom..
..Passing Strange is a broadway show.. i haven’t seen it yet, i just pulled that title out of nowhere, maybe because i’ve been seeing the ad everyday on my daily commute..

My nephew piloted a very similar cab around the streets of Victoria, BC when he needed to scrape some cash together, my goodness he had to be fit!
Love the image blur, which really adds something to the composition. As does the lady studying the manikin, as though he were buck naked ha ha
I saw the pedicab that resembled the available pedicab in my country. Moment the woman was the statue inside estalase very good. Regard from Yogyakarta City, Indonesia.
Nice action shoot, like the motion in this. Is the cart turning? Saw the lady studying, mentally “undressing” the mannequin after reading Floogs comment… Great!
I like the person looking in the window. (And the blog movement directional arrow points to here also). Nice warm colors.
The cabby looks like he was just pulling around (?)….love motion against the backdrop of the mannequins in the window. NYC is a photographer’s playground.
great action work, Rian! I like the scene.
A fine street scene. A cab of this sort looks like lots of work especially if the city happened to have any hills. Fine shot.
Great street shot..love the motion blur and the activity in this shot…fun and interesting!
I like the composition a lot – the white windows and the white stripes with the yellow/white cab in the center. The image has a nice lonely feel to it.
This is pretty cool for a shot taken out of sheer boredom. Love the result.
oh i love this! especially the mannequins and the woman peering the window and the moving figure at the other end.
opps – he’s not moving maybe – perhaps he’s just half erased by the light. either way i love the effect.
Looks like a great place to do some window shopping. Wonderful night shot!
I like it a lot Rian! Looks like your NYC portfolio is filled with great captures. Very nice street shot here!
Wonderful shot!

That CycleCab seems to be making a fast U Turn! I like the motion in this shot very much!
Wonderful street shot..and a perfect example of how you can get ‘lucky’ in the unexpected moment.
This is an great image! I really enjoyed it, superbly done.
Love it!
the pedicab looks blurred but there’s nobody in it.. so i wondered what was passing strange…. nice shot man!!
Don’t you love how things come together like that, Rian! 🙂
Segmented beautifully in many boxes and rectangles, then this swish of yellow to break up all that order, wonderful stuff.
Cool shot Rian! 🙂
Lots of things to look at, beautiful street shot!
Really like the geometric aspects of this shot. The lines, angles, and squares are all derived from some mathematical equation. Nice work.
Boredom inspired you a very strong composition, with a lot of stories to imagine. I’d like to feel such a boredom 🙂
