Meatpacking Sunset

A couple weekends ago, Beth and I were enjoying an early evening stroll around Meatpacking before a storm rolled in-the perfect excuse for some drinks and appetizers at Spice Market. And within meantime, the rain went away and the sun came out. I just love the way the setting sun reflects on the wet cobblestones. And the Hudson River looked oh so beautiful as well. 

**The quote is a great one I got from my friend Donna...she was having a conversation with her friend, Lauren, after recently returning from China.

Peace & Love

I came across this great photo book the other day, Pop Sixties. It had John Lennon's quote below that inspired me to dig up this photo from Climate Camp last year.

Living a Charmed Life

I found this book, Living a Charmed Life, the other day, by Victoria Moran. Had some great quotes in it, one of my favorites I included below. And of course more of my Great Aunt's photos.

London Calling

Although these aren't sticking to my New York theme, I have loads of photos from London that don't deserve to be kept in hiding. I loved walking past all the random graffiti letters by artist, Ben Eine and Cheshire St. is one of my favorites.

Tribute to the Stars

Today's the 19 year anniversary of my grandfather's death. We both share the same love for photography (only difference-he loved shooting stars in the night sky, I love shooting clothes on models). Anyways, I thought I would dedicate a page to him and all of his amazing notes and photos I've found in various parts of my grandmother's attic throughout the years. They make for an amazing montage.

Vintage New York: Part II

Here are a few more of my Great Aunt's scrapbook photos. And I also added in this vintage dress pattern I came across at the International Center of Photography's gift shop while I was visiting all their great exhibitions that are part of their Year of Fashion. Definitely worth a visit.
