battle

This is a scene from one of the coolest, and most confusing, things I’ve witnessed since I began trying my hand at street photography in New York.

A huge group of at least 50 people were gathered together in a dirt pit off to the side of a random path through Central Park. One guy looked like he was presiding over the event with a huge American flag, and everyone else was participating in this crazy group wrestling match with a set of rules that none of the spectators could understand. I shot at least 250 photos of the event because it was so fascinating, and this is one of my favorite shots. I love New York for things like this.

Canon 135mm f2 lens shot at f/2. Canon 5D Mark III camera.
