Life Sight

This one is...alot better. I actually feel like I'm alive looking at this.
I don't feel like a ghost.
This is next to an office building where I was visiting a friend. I wanted to get a closer shot but there was a drop which leads to that fence in the picture. It was just too damn cold for me to be monkeying around private property. I know, likely excuse.
I liked the plastic bags caught in the barbed wire, it reminded me of the South Bronx, and Astoria.
Life Sight feels so much better.

Midtown Fall

I do a lot of walking for my job. I walk from client to client all around the city. I water plants for large and small offices, and one retail place.
Also hospitals and a daycare center in the Bronx.
Alot of my time is spent traveling. Walking with my music in my ears and hordes of tourists to bob and weave through.
You'll see alot of these. It's just my life at the moment.
This is midtown somewhere.
The Sun is giving us a break from the cold morning.

South Bronx.
I actually found the google maps image of this place.
Before it had burned down that is.

That's the payphone right there in the middle of the barber shop. That food corp is not there anymore as well.

The internet is amazing.
google will take over the world one day.

Suburbs in the night

This is a pretty long exposure if I remember correctly.
I would say close to 15 seconds.
The fall colors look amazing under the street light.
Who needs to travel up north for fall foliage?

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.

Hey, can you guess who this stranger is?
I bet you can.

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.
