Quarters Only – New York

If you have been to New York you’ll know them. The quarter machines! Actually I haven’t used them. As a photographer you take your Zoom lens with you. It helps a lot and you save money 🙂
I edited the photo in a vintage way. Somehow this machine reminds me of all those black and with movies. Maybe you fell the same if you see these machines.
By the way in the Background you can see the Empire State Building.
I wish a great Sunday to all of you.
Leave comment, favs, kisses, whatever you like 🙂
Bye,
Ben
P.S. Does any of you know the slang name for this machine?
