A New Day

Due to the fact that I am now once again employed (yay!),

I'd like to announce that after today, I will now just be updating this blog on

TUESDAYS, THURSDAYS and SATURDAYS.

I will try to consistently post on each day.

Finding quality photographs and article content, as well as making what I had compiled interesting to the point where I was proud of it, had become increasingly difficult for me.  I was putting out material very irregularly, and feeling like a lot of it was just totally rushed, and slapped together, instead of nicely done. I wish I had the luxury to spend an hour each day editing photographs and writing an article, but sadly, I do not.  So, there will be, in theory, "fewer" posts, but they will be consistent.

Look  for the next post Tuesday morning at 9am est.

(Look at that sun shining through the clouds!  It is such a sign of optimism and a new start!  And... yeah.  It's pretty.)

(Also, take a look at this adorable couple snuggling with a parasol under a pink, flowering tree in Central Park.  Can you get a better omen than this?  Obviously, I am making a thoroughly good decision here.)

Thank you so much everyone for all of your support and feedback.  I always appreciate it!

Before the Train Passes By

Standing on the subway platform-  Sometimes I feel like I spend half of my day doing this.  

It's the commute.  It's the adventure.  It's the ride.  It's part of being a New Yorker.

And wow, does it ever beat driving.

These are a little hint of what is to come... a Subway Series!  I'll be following a New York City Subway line and taking photographs of every station, its surroundings, and the people who use it.  This will be starting up fairly soon.

All of these photographs were taken at the 14th St Union Square station.

Watch for that Crime

I can guarantee you that when a burgler breaks into your house, it SHALL be through a perfectly square window.  This burglar shall also be male.  This is decidedly so.  His entire outfit shall consist of one black bodysuit.  Preferably, this bodysuit will have a turtleneck, and reach to his wrists and his ankles.  He may even sport some dashing white gloves.  But, the one thing that I do know for certain about this burglar- he will be FRENCH.  Yes, ladies and gentlemen, French.  This is signified by his classy little beret- which is of course, black to match his outfit.  If you see someone in your house who is not dressed in this exact way, or does not have a very obvious French accent, carry on.  They could not possibly be a burglar.
