This photo was taken on a "fair, hazy day," according to Alice.While the man (left) is wearing a hat that overshadows his eyes, he seems to be gazing at the camera. The woman (right) holds a handful of pretzels - Alice's photo appears to have captured her midsentence. This vivid image is one great example of how Alice's photographs of everyday people in New York City evoke their spirit and personality.
