Back from New York

I haven’t had a chance to update my photography blog recently because I was in New York for the week.  I did not bring a computer.  I regularly do not travel with a computer anymore just my IPAD – it’s lighter and allows me to check email and watch  movies which is enough for me.  So this was a business trip which meant that I didn’t have a whole lot of time to take pictures which is unfortunate because to me New York has got to be one of the best places in the US to take pictures.  The city is vibrant, full of activity and unique characters.  I did get a chance to take some pictures of Times Square and Occupy Wall Street while I was there, as well as some portraits of my good friend Maryann and her boyfriend Lee.  I will post those later.  I really cannot wait to go back to New York and spend 3-4 days just taking pictures of the different boroughs.   I got a chance to visit Brooklyn and Williamsburg which was amazing – the character of the neighborhoods there is like nothing you have seen in any other city in the US – you really feel as if you are going back in time.  The attached photo is at one of the busiest places on earth – Times Square.  The rest of the pictures will be up in a gallery which I will setup soon.
