Paparazzi Photographer Ron Galella was in Manhattan for an artist reception of his work. Dozens of Galella's prints filled the walls of Clic Gallery on Broome Street in NYC. The event attracted over a hundred photography fans and other industry types to meet Galella, get a signed copy of one of his books, or maybe even purchase a print.
