New York City day 6 by Niklas Lindskog

Hi!

Here's a short report from day 6 in NYC, Wednesday March 13th
Travel log bullet points:

* Met up with fellow street photographer Barry Levy (well known admin in the Pure Street Photography group on facebook) at noon.

* We found a café and chatted for about an hour.

* Barry lives in Providence, Rhode Island and had traveled down to New York to meet me! We met also on my previous trip to New York in November 2017. Barry's a former professional photographer and really nice guy, very generous with sharing his knowledge and it was very interesting to hear his life story and his views on current American politics.

* We got some street photography done after heading down to the World Trade Center and Wall Street area.

* We had lunch and chatted some more in that area. An Irish pub with all the decorations up for incoming St Patrick's Day celebrations.

* We walked the short walk up to Chinatown and criss-crossed some streets there looking for shots before getting some nice Chinese tea at Barry's favourite teap place. 

* Suddenly it was already evening and Barry and I said our goodbyes. 

* I hurried back to the Upper West Side just in time to have dinner with the friends I'm staying with.

Hugs,

Niklas
