What Happened to Summer?

Photo 304: Now that the air has turned fall-ish again (what???), and I'm wondering if we skipped ahead to NOVEMBER, I also realize that this is the time where the air is crisp, and so are the pictures. My company just moved to midtown Manhattan, and this (see below) is what I get to walk by every morning. It's quite the atmosphere change, from a busy beehive of disgruntled New Yorkers shoving aside tourists in Grand Central to a more relaxed Park Avenue-ish area where you can find the cutest little Italian wine bar just around the corner right across from a vegetarian Indian restaurant. It's crazy, it's loud, it's wonderful -- all wrapped up into one beautiful adventure.

"In Washington, the first thing people tell you what their job is. In Los Angeles you learn their star sign. In Houston you're told how rich they are. And in New York, they tell you what their rent is." -- S. Hoogart -- SO TRUE! lol

The Fight for Color

Photo 141-142: Even though the wind is howling outside, and the temperatures are dropping a bit, fall is not yet ready to bow out of the month of November. Here are two shots that shout FALL, and embrace nature's reds and greens.

More NYC

Photo 133-135: I have to admit, fall is a great time for photography, because of all the colors and the feeling you get as you walk around on a crisp afternoon.

Patterns II

Photo 116-118: So it's been a very dry month for photography. I have no excuse besides my busy schedule, my lack of enthusiasm, and just absolute rebellion at the season turning into fall. I am off to San Diego today, Pedro is coming with me, so I'll have lots of new pictures. I did manage to capture two "patterns" over the last few weeks, which are below. I know, I keep breaking promises lately, but next week, when life returns back to relative calmness and normalcy, my Wall Street pictures will be shot and posted, and I'll haunt the Liberty State Park or Brooklyn Promenade. They've been on my list all summer, and nada... I'm disappointed in myself actually. Ok, enough of a confession, here's my pictures for today, and I will be back soon from SUNNY SAN DIEGO!
