Radio City Music Hall New York City at night in 2005 | Limited Edition of 10
Historic Theater Lights, Quiet Evening Crowd
I photographed this outside Radio City Music Hall in 2005—late at night, after the rush had passed. The marquee lights were still buzzing, casting long, clean shadows across the pavement. Most of the foot traffic had thinned out, but a few people lingered—talking, waiting, existing in that quiet pocket of time when the city’s energy dips but never stops.
I positioned myself across the street, directly in line with the entrance. I wanted the geometry to speak—the vertical signage, the glowing curves of the marquee, the dark void of the sky behind it. There’s nothing fancy about this shot. No tricks. Just standing still and letting the frame come together naturally.
The scene held that classic New York balance: architectural drama up top, real life unfolding below. It wasn’t staged. The people in the frame were just doing their thing—absorbed in the city, unaware of the composition they’d fallen into.
I’ve kept this image in my archive for years, and it still feels current. Because scenes like this don’t age, the signage may change, but the energy—the pulse of New York at night—stays the same.
If you’re drawn to street images that feel honest and unfiltered, you’ll find more in my New York City Black and White Collection—a series of moments where structure meets life, all taken from real walks through the city.
Each print is made and signed by hand in my studio. No filters, no fabrication—just a true New York night, captured and printed with care.
This is real photography—taken on location in 2005. What you see actually happened. No AI, no shortcuts—just an honest image, printed and signed by hand.

Limited Edition of 10
This photograph is released as a signed and numbered limited edition of only 10 prints in total across all available sizes combined—not 10 prints in each size.
Every size is drawn from the same edition. Whether the photograph is purchased as a small print or at the largest available size, it uses one of the 10 edition numbers.
I personally sign and number each print on the reverse, and every print is accompanied by a signed Certificate of Authenticity recording its title, dimensions, medium, edition number, and date of issue.
Once all 10 prints have been sold, the edition will be permanently closed. No additional numbered editions of the photograph will be produced in another size or format.
Premium Archival Fine Art Prints
I personally produce every photograph using archival pigment inks on premium archival paper with a subtle luster finish.
The paper provides rich tonal depth, excellent fine-detail reproduction, and a refined surface that reduces distracting glare under normal indoor lighting. It is especially well suited to both color and black-and-white photography.
Each photograph is sold as an unframed fine art print, allowing it to be framed according to the collector’s space and personal style.
Before a print leaves my studio, I carefully inspect it for color, tonal accuracy, surface quality, and overall presentation. Nothing is outsourced, and every finished print passes through my hands.
Worldwide Delivery Included
Every print is personally produced, inspected, signed, numbered, and carefully packaged by me at my studio in Haliburton, Ontario, Canada.
Worldwide delivery is included in the listed price, so there is no additional shipping charge added during checkout. I select an appropriate tracked delivery service based on the destination, print size, and current shipping requirements.
Delivery times vary by destination and may be affected by customs processing or circumstances beyond my control.
Because I also travel extensively to create new photographic work, studio dispatch may occasionally be delayed while I am away. When that happens, the print will be produced and shipped as soon as I return to the studio.
