Philip Glass' birthday party was held in Rockefeller Center. St. Patrick's Cathedral, seat of Roman Catholicism in New York, is just across Fifth Avenue. It is large and Gothic, containing many side altars and niches. I did not note who this saint is, although the hand gesture is common in Catholic iconography (in which I was well schooled). You could wonder whether it represents acceptance of divine will or a "beats me" answer to a question. The visitor is probably not Catholic or he would know to remove his hat in church.
I've got my fourth vax shot this morning - over 70 and immunosupressed. Hope to look for some new local material afterward.

A good shot.
A fine candid scene.
