I started shooting around with my Kiev 10 and its 20mm Mir when the Covid-19 closures started here in NYC. I soon realized that the only places that were open for business, and open to be photographed, were those deemed "essential services" by New York State. A series was born. This is a work in progress. I'll be adding to it as I get the chance to shoot more essential services. Stay safe.

Be careful out there Peter, if you see the virus turn and run the other way, don't try to be a hero. My neighborhood looks busier than normal. With everyone home they all go out to walk their dogs or stretch their legs when the sun is out.
