There had been a large group assembled on the roof, this couple lingered just a moment after the rest had left. I like the contrast of the embrace set against the graffiti^[1]-marked rooftops of the tenements^[2]. If you compare the graffiti here to “West Side Story (Intermission)” you can figure out which photo was shot first (hint: don’t be fooled by “BAM”). The rooftops of New York City teem with unexpected life, other examples in this set: “Mother Mary is My Line Judge,” “Teen with Toy Gun on Roof,” and “Rooftop Venus.”
