Manhattan Bridge and DUMBO - Part I

Click Here for Part II.

One of my favorite pasttimes when I was living in Florida was to get in my car and drive to a specific destination and photograph for the day, as well as sample the local cuisine. Now that I'm in NYC, I no longer have a car to get into, but I do have an unlimited metrocard with access to all five boroughs - a privilege in its own right. On Sunday, March 29 [I know, procrastination], my friend and fellow photographer Christopher Lucka and I met up in the Lower East Side and ventured across the Manhattan Bridge, into Dumbo and eventually into Williamsburg. We ate at a Greek restaurant called Oasis of Williamsburg where I had a falafel and a flavored soda. As we were walking, here are some of the images that I captured:

NOT ALL WHO WANDER ARE LOST - PART I

Preceding and proceeding our sledding adventure, we walked around the Lower East Side a bit and I took some photos there, as well. Here are my favorites.

A PHOTO BLOG A DAY KEEPS THE UNPRODUCTIVE ANXIETY AT BAY.

I've never been good at keeping a diary or journal consistently, so not sure why I thought that I could be consistent with a blog! It's been close to a year since my last post, when I [SURPRISE!] cheated on my juicing four days in with a bready, cheesy, mushroom-layered pizza. At least it gave me the momentum to continue the last three days and it was the most delicious pizza that I had ever tasted. Fast forward to now. New year, new job, new outlook on life and a bit of stability that I am all too aware can come crashing down at any moment. But one thing that has remained constant in this rollercoaster life is my love for photographing and traveling, so I am hoping to post photos here, ideally every day, but at least consistently. If all goes well, it will give me some structure and encourage me to photograph as much as possible. After all, I live in a playground known as New York City. I dreamed of living here. And now that I'm here I must utilize the never-boring environment backdrop that I have been so graciously given. So let's begin with my 31st bEARThday, January 26, 2015, when the storm of the century was supposed to hit. Disappointment triumphed, but a snow day was proclaimed and we handled that shit like a boss, complete with sledding, diner food and naps, just like a proper snow day should be. Oh, and it was my first time sledding, btw.
