I just went thru an old photo folder & figured I might as well post up a bunch of older photos, hope you enjoy.
This is from a show I did w/Magmo at the Orchard Street gallery, it was fun.
This is for my friend Olivia
She has an absolutely inspiring photostream, and also is one of my favorite photographers (not only on flickr). She is one of the nicest person that I met in the US. Olivia, I hope you like this, I have been trying to shoot something that would resemble your amazing style, however I figured out that I still have to work a lot to get there :)
I saw a lot of monks on Thursday. I wish I had known that a bunch of them were going to break dance in Union Square in honor of Adam Yauch of the Beastie Boys. Today is MCA Day.

The north stairwell, one of the museum’s most photographed features.:
i rented the Nikon 70-200 f/2.8 vr (MSRP $1700) from adorama for $45 total for 24 hours. not a bad deal, imho.
i had read alot of security not allowing zoom/large/slr lenses in this venue, so i planned/executed this following scheme.
i walked in alone without my wife & friends. i carried my d80 body only & small 35mmf20 lens. removed the SD card, stuck in 5th pocket. gave one battery to friend, one to wife. gave huge 70-200vr to wife (she is pretty- security guards let her get away with more, i have found).
as i walked in, one security said, wait, its a large camera. he called over another guard, who said, nah, only "large" lenses are not allowed. they didnt even check my wife's bag.
when the band finally started playing, and it got dark, i reached down and pulled out my 70-200. it was huge. i didnt have a chance to practice before the show, so it got some getting used to, but, overall, i was happy with it. i was in the center of the crowd.
around 30 minutes into the show, a huge (!!!) security guard grabbed me, said in my ear "you will put away that professional camera right now!" i said "ok", and tried to enjoy the rest of the show
overall, i think its a dumb rule. simply b/c the method the (un-knowledgeable) guards use is simply based on size. so once DSLRs shrink, it will be ok? or all cameras will not be allowed? or P&Ss in the front row should be allowed?
