Be very careful who you take photos of on the streets of New York

Anybody who knows my work knows I set up on many intersections in Manhattan photographing anybody interesting walking past me my digital library mia5.com has over 65,000 images on it that I have been editing out of for many years It’s still an art project in the works like all my other websites anyway I was standing on 38th St and 8th Ave., Always a very interesting group of people that walk around there, from a half a block away I saw this man carrying a baby sucking his thumb I knew if I took the photo there could be a problem with this guy I didn’t realize he was holding a baby doll I took the photo with my fill flash because it was very dark he stopped and said what the fuck are you doing motherfucker and grabbed the baby doll by the legs like he was gonna swing in at me I’ve been attacked with frying pans skateboards and purses never a baby doll luckily he walked away but I froze the moment
