Be mindful of this as once your foot is positioned, you are committed.
For the duration of this assignment your foot anchors or rotates on this exact spot.
The geometric body-length sphere around your anchor foot, defines your studio.

Located under the Bethesda Terrace, Central Park in New York.
The Bethesda Arcade has an iconic ceiling that's been line by 49 large panels of Minton Tiles.
The architecture is very ideal for string instruments and singing due to the design of the arcade.
There are often musicians playing inside the arcade so I was also able to take a photo today.
The tiles can be photographed no matter what the lighting condition may be outside because of the dim yellow lighting on the ceiling.

I couldn't take more than 3-4 cuts. Most people, including me,
Walk through a large area and search for a favorite scene.
But, in this condition (my foot anchored on this exact spot), it was very limited.
