Sparks and Sounds.

Something about taking pictures of fireworks seems poetic -- capturing a moment that is only meant to last for the briefest of seconds. There's something beautiful about a summer night, a spectacular view, good company, and exploding lights in the sky over thousands of awe-struck spectators.

28 x 28: February Twenty-One

I have a big test tomorrow so I am doing a special edition 'B-sides' version of yesterdays photos. Essentially these are the pictures that I liked, but didn't like enough to share yesterday.

28 x 28: February Twenty

So I had a very successful photo experience tonight, and I tried to employ some of the ideas of the art exhibit I saw and subsequently wrote about last night. By this I mean I tried to get people in these pictures just going about their business. For the most part I got some interesting pictures and I am posting up the best ones here for all to see. Some of these work really well as color images, but keeping in line with winter and the thematic throughline I've been presenting here during this month I've decided to show only the black and white images.

As an awesome side note, I am super happy with the last picture in this series (Classy Motion Blur) and even though I just said something completely different; I am including both black and white and color versions.

28 x 28: February One

28 x 28 is my attempt to post at least one piece of new content every day of February leading up to the 28th, which also just so happens to be my birthday. Some days I imagine the postings will be very tiny. Maybe a quick snapshot, maybe a drawing, maybe a poem or review of some kind. Either way, each day if I am successful there should be something new to see on this very site.

To start is a picture of one of my favorite views of downtown from the lower East Side. I don't know why it is particularly. Maybe it's because of the geometry of the cathedral and the buildings behind it and how they overlap. It's nice and snowy tonight, but not too cold to prohibit a quick walk.
