Hi, everyone! I am back from my wonderful adventure, but have not been able to get online w/ satellite since my return. On Friday I am going to look into getting the new Verizon broadband USB modem, hoping that will help.
I had an incredible time, took lots and lots of photos, which I am having trouble loading on to my computer as it is supposedly full.
If the Verizon USB modem works, I will be up and running this weekend, and I will catch up with all of you then. Until then, enjoy my first offering.

One of my New York City photos displayed at the event.
When I travel, I have staples that I take with me on long-haul flights and one of those staples is Wired Magazine. Always. So, when I was asked by Sony a few months back if I would want my New York photography book to be a part of a Wired Magazine pop-up store private event along with a gallery display of my photography, it was hard to contain my excitement.
In terms of things I never thought I would do six years ago when I started taking photos seriously, signing copies of my books at Wired's offices ranks up there as something I wouldn't have even believed I would be doing back then.
The Design Your World event took place at Wired's NYC pop-up store in the meatpacking district on December 16th. The event was open to private guests of Wired Magazine and each of the 250 guests received a copy of my book: NY Through The Lens. There was also a gallery sponsored by Sony featuring 10 large screens displaying my black and white photos (all of which are in the book, of course).
Despite the majority of the books having been pre-signed by me, I think I ended up personally signing around 200 books at the event itself! It was so nice to connect with so many people. Seeing their reaction to the book and to the gallery of my photography is something I will never ever forget. What a beautiful experience.
To all of the wonderful people who I spoke to, hugged, took photos with, bonded with, opined about New York city in the snow with, and whose books I personally signed on the spot - you made my year. Thank you.
Thank you to Sony and Wired for this incredible opportunity.
And most of all, thank you to absolutely everyone online and offline who has been so wildly supportive and encouraging when it comes to the book and to my photography. It's been quite a journey so far and I sincerely enjoy taking you with me every step of the way.

With five of us wedged into a wobbly, four-seater plane, this is a selection of shots from our sweaty one-hour flight from Manaus, in the Brazilian Amazon, to Novo Aripuana -even deeper in the Amazon- and back. Many thanks to Daniel, the pilot, for permitting the use of electronic devices. Aerial view of the Amazon Rainforest, near Manaus, the capital of the Brazilian state of Amazonas.

The new Amazon Kindle 2 Wireless eBook Reader is the amazing new little device that puts thousands of books right into your hand. It ways only 10 ounces, 10.2 ounces, lighter than a typical paperback. It wirelessly delivers books to you in less then 30 seconds with no PC required.
It includes actual simulated ink that is much easier on the eyes then just a regular video screen. It has an extremely long battery life, allow you to read for many days without recharching. It beats out the Sony Reader in many features.
When I ordered these two small batteries (approx C size) from Amazon I thought "No delivery problems, they'll easily go through my big letterbox." I was thinking of them arriving in a bubble padded envelope. They're not fragile.
But here they are in the box they came in. Big enough for a pair of shoes. Luckily I was in to collect the package.

So I did some shopping at various places and this is what I bought.
Amazon:
-Bloom Color Change Sirenix TRU Exclusive
-Bloom Light Up Sirenix Doll
-Bubble Bath ( I needed to spend $10 extra to use the rest of my giftcard and the bubble bath looked fun..)
-Oil absorbing facial sheets ( You can use these to determine your skin type and therefore buy the correct products for you skin type. Tutorial here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ALfSJBq1hCA )
I also have a Copic Colorless blender on the way but it wasn't an Amazon Prime item.
Target: I never bought a NIB Barbie willingly just because I wanted one.. SO this is my first! I saw Trichelle SIS at Target on clearance for $4.48... SO I had to get her. I love her outfit and bonus dress!
Lammily: Bought her from the Lammily website for $30.
