NYC : Gotham Blacked Out 9:38 PM
NYC : Saks Fifth Avenue Boarded Up
A very unusual look of 5th Avenue, empty and boarded up, it reminds me of the sobering look of Miami Beach getting prepared for Hurricane Andrew in 1992.
Unlike last year for Irene, during which we got stuck in LA after a shoot, this time I rebooked the return in time to be back …
NYC: Tomorrow 6th Annual SEA Paddle NYC
Come on out tomorrow and cheer on the athletes paddling around Manhattan to bring awareness and funding to the Surfers’ Environmental Alliance (SEA) environmental projects and ancillary Autism charities.
Join us at the start at 7:30am on Pier 40, and at the finish line around 12:30 when the first Elite Race paddlers will be landing on the beach underneath the Brooklyn Bridge, or for the White Water Party on Pier 17 at 6pm. For more info please visit SEAPadddle NYC.
As in the last years, I will be covering the event with photo and video front to back. Here are some images from last year.
Yesterday, PDN Magazine featured my SEAPaddle portraits from last year on their PDN Photo of the Day site highlighting the great cause of the event.
It would be great to see you there!
NYC: Happy Fourth of July !
NYC: Escape to Fort Tilden Beach
I love NYC, but I need to get out.
It started out as a cool, overcast Sunday morning on an empty ferry, the mood mellow, slow and meditative. It turned into a delightfully warm, clear and sunny day. Full summer will soon arrive.
Once past the Verrazano Bridge, the smell of that salty air immediately brought me into a different state of mind. The sound of the waves crashing was like what I believe John Muir once said “washing my ears” from the sounds of the city. My feet in the sand and my gaze upon the open horizon. The sun is about to break through, it is just 11am and I am beginning to unwind.
The ferry ride is somewhat of a personal luxury to me. It enabled me to hang on to the mellowness and relaxed state achieved by spending time on the beach and riding my bike along the outside perimeter of the city at sunset, not having to dive in until the last moment, helped to preserve that feeling. The mellow Sunday evening vibe of NYC helps as well.
NYC: Space Shuttle at JFK
A special sight upon departure out of JFK, leaving the city for Southern Patagonia, Chile.
NYC: Subway Beats II
To get around the city I prefer riding my bicycle above ground, but I always appreciate musicians and performers making my visit in the subway below ground more pleasant.
On Production: NYC Roof Top Shoot
I have much appreciation and respect when things line up perfectly, brilliant blue sky day, 50 degree temperature (in January!), amazing NYC rooftop location and a fun client with greatly motivated athletes, some higher power is helping us all along. Mucho mas Mahalo
