Paul at Lincoln Center |
Hey, It's Charlie Rangel |
| Snapped a few of Diane Sawyer down at Ground Zero, all the networks were broadcasting on the anniversary of the attack. |
It was 30 seconds of excitement and jostling as cameras and flashes met Paul's arrival at Lincoln Center for the premiere of Ocean's Kingdom. |
Was covering the Philip Read street naming ceremony in Harlem and who was there but ever popular congressmen Charles Rangel mugging for the camera. |
|
Spent a couple of hours on Wed covering the Occupy Wall Street protest, very high energy, obviously historic. Shot lots of stills and video and will be posting galleries early next week. The crowds were absolutely massive and just kept coming, very definite echoes of the 60s, the stage is set, where are the headline acts?  |
 |
| Once you enter through these doors you are captivated by the offerings inside and may find it hard to ever leave this place. There's wine and cheese, fresh fruits and veggies, a diverse variety of breads, desserts to die for, there's samon and clams and shrimp and crab cakes, and soups and sauces as well, there's antipasta and a myriad of deli delights, and coffee beans freshly ground, and nuts and grains, and sausages, steaks, salami, there's oils and dressings, and pies of all flavors, there's cookies and muffins and mini pizzas, and fresh cut flowers from heaven. It's the Grand Central Market and it's a sight to behold. |

Traffic Maze |
Head Turners |
By boat, jet ski, skate board, rickshaw, bike, and by foot, New Yorkers are constantly on the move in all sorts of ways. On bike paths, running tracks, in parks and city streets, there is always a constant ever chnging scenery of movement. |
I like shooting traffic, all sorts of traffic in all sorts of conditions ... from jams in the setting sun to gridlock in a blizzard. |
Adding a new gallery of those shots that kinda make you look twice. |
 |
Gotcha |
|
It's The Naked Cowboy |
| Was on one of the subway escalators when I noticed this couple getting a little amorous. I quietly pulled out my LX5 and framed the shot, ans as I clicked, the girl opened her eyes, stared at me, as if to say.. Shoot this! |
The warm weather reveals all, namely all that ink that is mostly hidden all Winter, so get your cameras out and hit the street, you can see large scale masterpieces almost every few minutes in the right neighborhood. |
Each Summer New York City fills up with tourists. Here's a bunch of shots that are each related in some way to tourism. |

Tourist For A Day |
|
|
| How many sights can you squeeze into one day... Stay tuned, I am about to find out... |
New York has four distinct wonderful seasonal looks and it's kinda hard to pick a winner. Fall colors in Central Park, snowed out in Times Square, Summer on the water, and Spring all over.... |
Summer, long hot days at the beach, in the parks, on bikes, skates, boards and boats ... |

Land of the Mohawks |
Writing's on The Wall? |
| A short conversation with this guy may have answered some of the many questions that come to mind, more the longer you look at the shot... |
Have been encountering quite a few mohawks on the street lately so am in the process of building a gallery that will post soon |
There's no shortage on folks who seem to think they know the way... in time I guess we'll see... |
WTC Archive |
The Bubble Man |
Bobby Knight |
| Am going thru the archive and pulling out some of the more unusual shots I have of the World Trade Center towers. Galleries posting soon... |
David Blaine was one of a few stories I came across while going thru the archives recently. |
It was 1984, courtside at The Olympics in Los Angeles, and Bobby Knight was about to give one of the officials an ear full... |
Lieutenant Dan Choi  |
Fat Free |
Endangered Species |
Don't Ask Don't Tell activist Lieutenant Dan Choi posed for this quick pic on the first day of legal same sex marriage in New York. Dan was attending the wedding of Jeanette and Kawane from MCCNY and Rev Pat performed the ceremony. |
In July I covered the Sandblast Festival at Asbury Park. This beach event is held each year and is a good opportunity for those with showcase bodies to strut their stuff. |
Now that smoking is banned in the greater outdoors in many city areas, it's become a photo op when you still come across someone lighting up. This guy was very happy to play along. |
Dress Up Time |
Bag man? No, Paper Man! |
Willie Gee |
| Whether it's the Easter Parade, The Gay Pride Parade, or Halloween, there's always lots of folks who are happy to ham it up for the camera. |
I have run into this guy a few times now and finally decided to ask him to pose for a few quick snaps. |
Am working on some video projects with jazz musician Willie Gee. As well as performance pieces, we are shooting a PSA supporting creative arts programs in schools. |
