A Photos Worth Vol 1. / by Zandy Warhol

Everyone knows the saying, and in many ways it's true. A photo captures so much emotion or can bring back so many memories, that a thousand words isn't enough to describe the moment frozen in a single frame.

I've taken over one hundred thousand photos since I began shooting, and while I don't remember the details to each one; those that I do find as interesting, have stayed in my mind.

I went shooting early on a Saturday in February; it was cold, very cold. I had been in the shadows waiting for someone interesting to walk by this slice of light for some time and was ready to head to another location when I saw a woman walking on the sidewalk holding a cup of ice water.

I managed just two photos before the person behind her entered the frame and was lucky enough to capture what I'd envisioned. After that, the sun continued to rise, the sliver of light expanded, and the moment was gone. In just a few minutes, this slice of sunlight became just another sidewalk in the city.
