This week, let’s spend some time down in the romantic, grimy, bustling New York City subway system. I’ve collected images of three characters in the subway: care to flesh them out a bit?

This past weekend, Wren and I watched two people dear to our hearts get hitched. It happens to be one of several weddings we have on our schedules this year (congratulations, everyone!).
This week’s for the lovers. Feel like writing about a little romance?
