I was invited to go to the Coney Island Aquarium on Saturday. My wife's friend brought her 7 year old daughter, Emma. She was hanging with me and I was able to take some interesting shots. This one was her standing in front of the Jellyfish tank.

I love this Van


I am not sure what year this VW van is but I love it. It's clean smooth design. Lot's of room. Perfect for the traveler/mt.biker/photographer/kiteboarder guy ; like myself... that's also my condo in the background behind those RVs. This happens to be the closest place you can park an RV near Manhattan...

I'm in New Orleans




I'm working down in New Orleans right now for a few days. It's been a very interesting time. Many really nice people you talk to on the streets. You are allowed to drink beers and cocktails outside while walking around as long as it's not in a glass container. That sounds reasonable.
During a location scout we stopped at Middendorf's for a Fried seafood experience. Pictured above is a birdeye view of our table. You'd think a Tums would come with an order like this but we all enjoyed this fried feast from the famous eatery; next to it was this bridge landscape. You drive on many of these type causeways around this part of Louisana.
I photographed the Lucky Dog cart while heading to the hotel. It's a small chain of mobile hotdog vendors.. a much more interesting cart than the stardard NYC style. More to come. Stay tuned.

A night out at the bar

My friend Aaron and his girlfriend Christine looking good under the red lights at No Malice Palace in New York City.











Pat is just hanging out as I spy on the woman outside. I was waiting for her to react or do something but she was just looking at her friend.. boring.











This was way more fun when we were all drunk trying to take this picture. Her camera was recording her live as I shot her.... but there was a person with a camera photographing me... ah-HA!

What's Sacha doing?


Here's my studio mate, Sacha Newley; in action!!.. and working on another project. I like how this one is going... plus he's sporting an Obama hat. Awesome. You should check out his work: http:www.sachanewley.com , it's quite amazing.. I'm lucky to be in a studio where we are both working on different types of mediums in art. He impires me to work hard, to be creative, to pay attention to detail.. right on Sacha!

the Dalai Lama


My friend DJ, his sister Gillian, her boyfriend Tom, and I went to see the Dalai Lama uptown in NYC yesterday. He was set up at the Beacon Theater. Beautiful stage set up. His talking put me in and out of sleepiness. Apparently he has that effect on people. Though, I didn't see any of the monks on stage bobbing their heads.
