Metropolis

The concrete jungle: surreal and beautiful when viewed from 1050 feet above street level.

Better Days

Oh New York. Get well soon.

To those of you affected by the storm, I hope you and your loved ones are safe and sound.

As I wrap up my New York City posts (for now), I'm already packing for my next trip. Where did the time go? I'll be back on Friday to say goodbye before I board my plane.

New York Noir

Even though I work mostly in color, I still adore black and white photography. It lends itself so well to the drama of New York City, particularly at night.
Some of you have been asking about prints. I'v been adding many of the photographs I've been blogging to my shops. They can be found in my Etsy shop and in my personal shop.

Last of the Bohemians

Some of the best balconies and fire escapes in the city are found in Greenwich Village.


The arch and its design details in Washington Square Park.




Yes, the cappucino is fabulous here.


I mean really. Just look at that.




The house used as Carrie Bradshaw's apartment building in Sex and the City.


Magnolia Bakery was featured in a Sex and the City episode. It's not hard to see why. Its retro interior is so very charming. And the cupcakes, with pastel-colored icing like mint and lilac, are yummy.




My favorite neighborhood to stroll through is Greenwich Village. It has a unique charm, with its more haphazard street layout revealing its origins as a rural hamlet. How I would have loved to have experienced it in the 1960s, at the height of its bohemian heyday.
