She looks soo tall, worth diving for the angle no matter how ridiculous you look. Awesome that you ran into her again and got to share it with her.Β

Indeed:
From a comment I posted regarding that picture:
"UPDATE: I took this photo on Sept. 31 somewhere on 7th, 8th, or 9th Ave with Markus Hartel (a street photographer). The next day, I saw the girl down in Chelsea and recognized her because of her figure and her shoes (she was wearing the same ones). I stopped her and asked her if she was in Manhattan the day before. She said she was and indeed recognized me. I showed her the picture on my laptop and asked that I email it to her. I also asked her about the look, if she was angry or mad at me. She said she wasn't but was wondering why this guy just would just dropped to his knees right in front of her..."
UPDATE 2: After googling her name, turns out she is a pretty successful model. Her name is Magdalena Fiolka...

Again, amazing light AND subject. The next day, I saw her again, in a completely different part of Manhattan and it turns out, she's an accomplished model

Wow, this is excellent. I love her expression. Her legs look inhumanely long, though...
Was she a stranger or did you approach her prior to taking the shot?

She was a complete stranger:

Amazing story to accompany this gorgeous photograph. That's what street photography is all about.

Haha, nice one. And indeed, she seems like someone you'd recognize again. She really seems to stand out.

There is even more. She turns out to be a famous model: Magdalena Fiolka

Indeed. That's a crazy coincidence.
