Honest Aardvark


I like how he's very upfront about his situation. No beating around the bush with this guy.

Tea Lounge Bathroom Art



You know a place is cool when it's bathroom looks like this.

Love is a beautiful thing.



On the same day that Fred Phelps and his congregation tried to protest Brooklyn Technical High School for "promoting homosexuality" and were met by 250 student protesters, I capture the beauty and pure love of this relationship.

Love it.

Headshots.


Get it??

These are reconstructed skulls from our ancestors. Amazing to see the bone structures evolve.

Waiting for the bus after school.


It looks a lot different than it did back in 8th grade.

Looks like Main St., Small Town, America.



When in fact it's the biggest city in the country.

Park Slope, Brooklyn

Vibrant and beautiful.




These flowers were gorgeous, just like the weather on this day, which was spent in McCarren park with Meg. People watching, reading, napping, and living vicariously through other people's softball game. What a lovely day.

Oh, and staying in the realm of vibrant and lovely, I almost forgot about these balloons!




I love how the spikes from the fence are ominously looming in the corner, as if to invite the balloons to come just a little bit closer.

Target looks better in black and white.

New camera = new possibilities.


I got a new Nikon D40, and I'm excited to figure out how it works. These two shots are just me playing with it down in Tribeca.


Sunset through the greenery.



Family and bubbles at sunset.

Free music a-plenty.


First, I saw Emanuel and the Fear perform at Spike Hill. They were fantastic, but my camera in the dark was not. This is the best grainy picture I could capture, but I think it's fabulous nonetheless.



Then, at the Bedford L, a man was in a banjo, suicase, tamborine playing frenzy. It was brilliant, and this picture is from his back, with folks dancing all around him.

Creative energy abound.



I am so excited to move to my new apartment and have all kinds of DIY decorating plans. Fridge magnets. Paper mobile. Most of them coming from Design*Sponge - an awesome interior design website.

But one of my own ideas is in an effort to overcome mismatching furniture. I'm pretty sure I'll need to peruse craigslist to buy a wardrobe/external closet. However, the odds are against finding one that matches my brownish/black furniture. My solution: decoupage. I plan on decoupaging an entire wardrobe with pictures from magazines that I have. I'm starting my collection now and this is some of my handiwork.

Beautiful mantra.


And I believe it, too.

Campus at sunset.


What a lucky duck I am.

Perspective.


Up close and personal with some graffiti in Williamsburg.




So interesting to see it pulled back and the section I photographed is barely visible in it all.

With just a change in perspective, it goes from center focus to minute detail.

The ESB... Evil Sorcerer's Burrow.


Ok. A little lame, but the yellow glow coming from the ESB looked haunting when reflected off the cloudy night sky.

If only my camera had captured it clearly. (That DSLR needs to happen ASAP!)

Battery. Check.
Chapstick. Checkmate.



A game of resourceful chess at Fat Cat.

A picture a day... or a random musing that I wrote on the subway in my little notebook.

Be prepared for anything and everything. And no worries if no one reads this... I'm making and sticking to this one for me.
Awww, who am I kidding. I had much more success with just a photo a day. That's what I shall return to. Here's today's photo, even though it's from a couple of weeks ago.

I commit to today.


Thank you Meg.
For a: taking this photo, and b: motivating me (unknowingly) to return to my blog.
