Sunday October 9th was the Hispanic parade in Manhattan. I walked up 5th watching each ethinic group flow out from the streets on either side to join the back of the main procession. I was looking for something slightly different than capturing the parade itself. I noticed how efficient the sanitation dept and the police dept were clearing up at the back of the procession, opening up block after block as the mass of people edged their way uptown. I stopped on the sidewalk as two burly cops stacked these barriers up, ready for collection. I like the strong diagonals, emphasised by the longer focal length I chose.
