I was on a somewhat random walk through lower Manhattan, starting at the Freedom Tower on my way to Lower East Side for a dinner. Somewhere near City Hall I noticed a large number of cops standing around on the sidewalks. When I noticed some sirens on the bridge I thought I would hang around for a while to see if anything interesting would happen. Well nothing happened for a while and I headed closer to the junction of the Brooklyn Bridge, where I came upon the Brooklyn Bridge Halal Food cart.
And shortly after I arrived at the food cart, a bunch of people with signs showed up.
I then floated among the crowd. This was pretty low lighting, and for some reason I was manually focusing the entire time. I was also switching between my X-pro2 and a Pentax spotomatic 35mm film camera. Hopefully some of those were exposed well.
