New York, Dog Pretzel Sausage Stand
To me, this represents New York. These small food stands are all over town. They sell almost everything. Soda, dogs, pretzels, sausage, bread, nuts and the list goes on. I didn't get to taste a dog from one of these stands, but i did try a pretzel. My son like pretzels, but im not really into it.
We also went into a shopping center and on the way out, all my gear set of the alarm. My son was eating a pretzel and the security guard said: "I had to give up on my diet, because of those pretzels. So good! Oh its just your gear setting of the alarm, no worries." She didn't even check my bag...

I love hot dogs.. Never been to NY, but what you captured in this photo is absolutely the image I've always had of NY ;)
I like the perspective and the contrast of the sitting vendor and the two moving subjects to the left. Nice capture!
I like the colors of the umbrellas, putting some warmness into this city picture of grey blocks. and the seller who patiently observes the people passing by.
Such cheerful colors in this shot. I love the pretzels they sell at these place. Of course I dip them in mustard. Nice capture.
Nice streetshot. Unfortunately I've never been to NY but the images like this make me longing for a trip to there. Sometime...
Oh i love NY. 1998 last time i was there. Nice urban shot, an i like the storie behind.
nice shot, interesting pic
Quintessential NYC. And you've put me right there in the scene. Can I have a pretzel, please?
This is very great shot of the street salesman, I always love those stands, in this picture you have so much detail, love your POV, I remember that I was amazed by the seize of pretzels they sell
Pretzel Logic. Anyone remembers Steely Dan? I can't remember what the lyrics said, but here we encounter kind of a pretzel logic scene! Nicely done.
nice street image - I like the man's style and expression at the left
yumm! hot dogs! you took this pic a block away from my office ... i love that crazy statue in the left corner
That photo has New York City all over it. A great representation of it. Well done Bo... and a great story too. :)
You have captured the essence of New York very well here. I really like photographs where people walk around seemingly disinterested doing their own thing.
Nice story and great shot! I like the perspective and the stand colors. Nice!
I like how you let the colors of the hot dog stand shine in this shot.
Great urban capture!
But how did you manage 7 exposures and still having the moving people in focus?

Nice shot and congratulations for your hall of fame at photoblogs.org
@Jonas: Its a trick :)
Photomatix can handle movement (on a small scale), and later in the post processing i'll go in a replace movement. The woman walking was more than photomatix could handle and it didn't look good, so i replaced her from one of the brackets when she still had some movement. After that its about matching colors and light with the rest of the image.
@El Jefe: Thanks! Hadn't even seen it.
Great street shot. Lots of interesting things going on in this image. I can imaging walking up on this scene.
Nice shot showing a daily slice of life. It makes me want a hotdog!
Wow, that's a cool combo of 7 shots, very evocative of New York.
And now a question?? Are the hotdogs as good in New York as here in Copenhagen? ;-) Nice shot!
very nice evocation of NY, or Pretzel York ?!
100% New York! à déguster en légère contre plongée
I remember these stalls well from my trip there in 1987...was it that long ago!!!
I agree this is what you think of on the street when you say New York. Also, the street vendors selling things like watches too. Love this shot, great composition.
cool street shot. i like the processing.
very well captured New York street spirit, i love NY
