NJ Turnpike.
Somewhere among the field of Phragmites.
An invasive grass that I've strangely grown to love.
Many of you can thank these plants for your allergy symptoms.
I can't imagine what the swamps looked like before the take over.

Jenn
This beautiful lass is Jenn.
She invokes strange colors that weren't even there to begin with to appear in her photo.
I think she does this by her disapproval of me taking a picture of her.
Perhaps she's "Seeing red".
Happy Birthday Jenn! We love you!
WTC Tourist
It doesn't look like the winding mechanism worked the way it should here... very common in my photos, I know. Just some of the problems with working with old cameras.
This is in a building I visit on Tuesdays for work.
Tourists are always huddled around a speaker in front of this glass wall, gazing up at the massive site of Ground Zero.
Every week without fail. They are there.
I try to pick out where they come from by the language of the speaker.
Depths of our City
The underground subway system of NYC is a pretty astonishing and epic thing.
This was shot in the Whitehall stop on the R train. The last stop before entering Brooklyn. In this place all I see are tourists and suits.
Not my scene, really.
I wonder if the subway walls are amused by the masses of people coming and going. Fashion trends and new faces of different cultures emerging all the time. New tracks, new trains, and new conductors.
They even witness the stalactites of filth forming.
I wonder...

Oil in Swan Lake Dance
Hello all!
I've come back from a bit of a hiatus.
Just wandering in my thoughts is all. In my wandering I found that I have to come back to showing people my photos. I never stopped taking photos but I lost interest in showing them to other people.
A friend of mine who is traveling the country at the moment sent some encouraging words about my photos. I didn't realize anyone was viewing or even interested. I started this so I might be able to inspire others through my photos. I've lost track of what that means and lost faith in people.
When you lose faith in people, you lose faith in yourself.
Because you are in fact a part of the people.
I'm also changing how I upload pictures.
I'm going back to my old way.
Mainly for the ease of it. ^_^
They will appear smaller now, but you can just click it to get to a bigger picture! see? Baby food.
I used to work with a day laborer in my rooftop gardening days who would call easy tasks, Baby Food.
''You want me to carry this soil up two floors? Oh that's baby food, no problem".
Each picture will be a separate post for dramatic viewing!
And cus it's easier for me!
But mainly because it's easier for me. ^_^
Thank you,
and I apologize for the 3 month hiatus.

Oil in Swan Lake Exposed
I encountered this one day during a normal commute to work through Time square.
A dreaded place it is. Mobbed with tourists, beggars, and walking advertisements.
Sometimes there are woman with their whole bodies completely painted. Sometimes there are break dancers putting on a really "Urban" show. And other times shiny cars are placed in the center of it all showcasing the newest models.
Often I wonder how many tourists have pictures of loved ones with me in the background with a watering can strapped to my backpack. Now that's amusing.
Oil in Swan Lake
But my favorite part these days about the awful Time square are the tourists from around the world wearing T-shirts that say "American Idiot" on it. Classic.
We're dumb, we're fat, we're proud and we don't give a shit. The American way.
