Angles in Tribeca, from a wander in the city on the glorious Sunday afternoon just past.
That is to say, it's raining today and I'm still struggling a bit. It's getting better– but how difficult, how unsatisfactory to arrive at the end of a week with so little accomplished (as compared to what one had planned to accomplish). And not for a lack of time in this case, but a (seemingly… Continue reading the deluge and a lack of ambition

Yesterday I went to the Brooklyn Navy Yard to shoot some photos for a client. These were some incidentals shots,… Continue reading Navy Yard
