(Apr 25) You thought March was over. We lied. But April too. Honest!

walking through the ruins of a grand building
Peeking at the past

it's taking forever
Slowly. Oh so very slowly.

Moon at dawn

April started with reality TV stars in my midst

costco meat (mostly)
What’s $100 of meat look like

The warm has arrived

time marches on more quickly than construction has on the wtc site
Does it look like it changed any since the one above?

i'm about to elevate my day
This way up

(Mar 31) The end of March. April waits in the wings.

the gathering
A swarm of cars

habitat of the combustion engine
As far as the eye can see

on the way to somewhere
Takeoff

that's your data flying into the sun
The Cloud(s)

things that are up in the sky
Today’s theme is …

the birds
Another swarm

strange times
Birds in a snowstorm.

(Jan 30) The time is now. I have decided to replay the formula that got me to Brooklyn the last time. I have taken This Side of Paradise and The Great Gatsby off the bookshelf. This time I won’t be reading them on a porch in a rocker, with Billy in my lap and a brandy at my side. I hope the effect is the same. F. Scott Fitzgerald was wrong about one thing, I’m about to start my third act.

the suburbs, going nowhere
The present sucks.

eagle from the palace that was pennsylvania station
The past calls to me

going
Change is required

rebirth
To get to the future.

(Aug 1) A trip to see a client downtown. I walked back up Broadway as I have many times before, knowing this time, like the other times, would be different from any other time.

lollerblades
Seen passing through Jamaica Station… WTF.

probably not
They abbreviate all the bad things. Coincidence?

i've only photographed it a dozen times now
I need to find out what this is

a tower rises again
It’s still a surprise anything ever got started

up broadway
I set out after visiting a client, and passed through City Hall Park

i might have the wrong title/artist
Thomas Schütte
“Memorial for Unknown Artist”

that's a lot of ketchup

oh yes it is
Elmgreen & Dragset
“It’s Never Too Late to Say Sorry”

Plaques from a simpler time?

serpents strangling priests
Justin Matherly
“New Beaches”

federal plaza
I left the park, heading up Broadway….
Beverly Pepper
“Manhattan Sentinels”

on the other side of the plaza
One more sentinel

(Jun 25) June ends with first harvest.

ladies and gentlemen...
Lisa presents

the squash
My first vegetable of the season

really really pours
“When it rains, it pours.”

wetly
Through the shielding from wind glass

one world trade center
My travels in NYC have become rather limited
