Shaft of sunlight highlights woman's face at Grand Central Station, NYC

Grand Central Station, New York City

Grand Central holds the promise of so many photographic opportunities. There wasn’t an abundance of sunlight in the terminal, but then this beautiful shaft of light appeared. I quickly positioned myself by the staircase, exposed for the highlights, and waited for the “right” person to walk into it. I was not disappointed.

  1. Using that shaft of light is a wonderful way to isolate this wonderful subject from all of the other people rushing here and there, and yet their detail is still present in the shadows to give the sense of place. Lovely and elegant shot!
