Celebrity Run-Ins Street Photography

[NY_Dan]

Bumped into one of my favorite actor/comedians, Jemaine Clement (Flight of the Conchords) on the streets of New York City this past week. He graciously posed for this quick shot:

Nice shot, and definitely a funny guy. It's Jemaine BTW.

Thanks for catching my typo! Wish I had the chance to make a more worthy photo -- I was annoying enough 🙂

You didn't call him the Hiphopappotomus, did you?

Years ago, I ran into Brian Keith in the streets of Chicago. I had my Nikon F80 with me, and I asked him for permission to photograph him... Now, I must fish out and scan that slide...

Any more celebrities spotted lately?

I have seen quite a few. If you lived in NYC, especially where I did through the 70s, 80s, and 90s, you saw a lot. I had two live in my building - Lenny Kaye, guitarist for Patti Smith, and Keir and Dimitri of Deee - Lite (Groove Is In The Heart - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gzoEK545j64). I preferred to defer not to photograph them. Maybe my bad.
