During the lockdown, not many people were on the streets, only the essential workers or people like me who wanted to document these strange times. Everybody else was working from home or collecting unemployment checks. City was a ghost town, I was even managed to get times square with no one in the frame. One morning, there was a heavy fog, which is my favorite weather to shoot. I went up the Brooklyn Bridge early in the morning, in normal times you would see hundreds of people on the walkway no matter what time of the day it is. I started shooting the bridge and at one point this lady in work attire wearing red sneakers passed by me walking towards the city. The bridge was so empty, it was just me and her on the walkway. The city was a scary place to be at the time, and brick giant itself seemed like a monster coming out of the fog. I couldn't think of a better name than Jane vs Goliath
