The theme of October and November is treachery. Being the recipient of treachery it turns out, is very time consuming and sleep-disturbing.

(Jun 15) This photoblog now bids adieu to the Sony DSC-N2 I bought in a rush to replace the short-lived Sony whatever that came after the Sony Minidisc, which came after the Kodak somethingorother. My main concern when buying the N2 was that Billy was nearing the end of his days.

Also… I have the use of a car. Photographically, this sort of changes everything.

The park around the corner. Still haven’t figured out what the deal with it is.

(Jun 12) It’s called a Tulip Tree, and I’m told its wood is hard and straight. Probably used for ship’s masts.

Unfortunately I can take dozens of photos with this camera and still not be able to tell if they’re all blurry or not until it’s too late.

here today, gone tomorrow
The next day, a storm obliterated the blooms.

(May 4) As has been my way since moving back to Long Island, I walked to IBM from Penn Station round-trip. I don’t feel I’m getting $4.50 worth of transportation to go only twenty three blocks north and four or five blocks east and back again. (In May I did Penn Station to 84th and back for a total of one hundred blocks north-south and one east-west)
