This is a black and white street photo in landscape format of a busy, city street corner with a traffic policeman directing traffic, blurred taxi cabs and a crowd of people waiting at the crossing. 5th Ave, NYC (2011).

In the lower left and right corners are the blurred images of New York taxi cabs speeding through the city's rush hour. The cab's are viewed obliquely with their right side and rear in view and from a distance of a few metres. In the centre of the photo is a New York Police Department traffic police man standing on the side of the road letting the traffic flow past. He is looking to his right (in the direction of the traffic) has a ushanka (Russian fur hat) on his head, is wearing wire rimmed glasses and has a dark moustache. He is wearing a sleeveless hi-vis jacket with 'NYPD' by the right shoulder and a thick, heavy winter's jacket beneath. Behind him is a crowd of commuters, shoppers and hardy tourists, all waiting to cross the street. Immediately behind is a large and brightly lit shop front belonging to the clothing chain H&M with numerous female mannequins behind the large glass shopfront. Above the centre and left of the photo is a street sign with an arrow and 'No Right Turn 7am-7pm except buses' and below a further sign 'Buses Only 7am-7pm Mon thro Fri'.
