Vines and brick on 4th st. (I believe) This is one of those things I thought would be neat, but did not turn out like I hoped.

This is the roof line on the south side of the street on 4th between 1st & 2nd. I'm not sure why it caught my eye, but I think I like the layering effect it created.

Crif Dogs on St. Marks. Surprisingly good hot dogs, and I like to take pictures of the sign.

Another fountain near my office. It was a long exposure. I'm not entirely happy with the result.

Someone brought these two balls into the office. I really like the red on the cricket ball

This is a 2 second exposure over the Midtown Tunnel. It was taken around 8:00 PM, and it was night by then. It looks so bright here.

This is one of the out buildings in Stuyevesant Park. It looks a little creepy in this photo...

There was so much read on this bike, and I knew it would pop on the Velvia film. Oh, I should mention that I accidentally shot this entire roll of film over exposed by one step, so the images will tend to look slightly blown out.

All over the East Village, but especial along St. Mark's Pl. You'll find mosaics on the light poles. They are pretty darn neat, and speak to the arts history of the neighbor hood. I saw the guy who does them once. An older guy. I think he just like the way it looks and likes talking to people while he works on them.

All robot wants is a high five. I've seen variations of this stencil scattered all over lower Manhattan. It amuses me greatly.

Fuji Velvia 50, 4/19/2011 f/2 1/4th second

I am amazed that this image came out like it did. At 1/4th of a second it is almost impossible to get a nice clean image like that. Here's Michelle working on knitting.
