It was early morning on the final day of my first trip to New York City. I was taking photos to help remember the trip. When I ducked into a small pizza shop the owner saw my camera and said get ready. I pointed it at the man making the pizza and he threw it up into the air. I'm sure he does this many times during the day, but the moment was magical for me. I had to paint it. A pleasant surprises was the reflection of the city bus passing by.
The slice of pizza was great!
