Photo-A-Day

On Sept 6, 2010, my 35th birthday, I began a photo-a-day project. Each photo was taken on that day, which was the only rule. I took pictures of whatever struck my fancy. A lot happened in my life that year, and it surely will be one that I never forget. I hope you enjoy the photos as much as I did taking them.

Day 185 -It's Ash Wednesday, so I thought I would go to the most Catholic place I could think of in the western hemisphere. St. Patricks Cathedral. Today marks the beginning of Lent and although I'm not Catholic, I still obseve Lent as part of my Protestant faith. So I'm giving up sweets until Easter. On a more relevant note I'm giving up color. So until Easter the photos will be black and white. Lastly this one goes out to all my Catholic fans.

  • Day 182 -It's not often that I take time to pose photos and have subjects to do so. I was fortunate to photograph my friend Sara from my Guard unit, who let me take some prego photos. It was fun and she looked great.
  • Day 183 -Spring is coming and winter is quickly going away. The ice rink is empty and we don't know how much longer it will be around. I thought it was unique having it free of skaters. If you're keeping track of the project we just past the half way point.
  • Day 184 -Today I was on a field trip to the American Institute of Graphic Arts Design Center. It was very interesting tour and a cool organization if you're into graphic design. Check it out <a href="http://www.aiga.org">http://www.aiga.org</a><br /> Anyway This was just some periodicals they had in their library. I was wanting to do something colorful today.

  • Day 186 -It's another rainy night in NYC. Not much to say about this one, except it's a good lesson to those who don't take umbrellas with them when they have to go to kinkos at 10:30 pm for school supplies. Giving up color for Lent.
  • Day 187 -It's iPad 2 launch day and the NY Fifth Ave store is a buzz with excitement. Manny and I had to check it out, despite wishing I was in line for Christina. She is planning to get one after next week when she finds out if she'll be employed this summer. Giving up color for Lent.
  • Day 188 -Manny got a nice long walk today in the park and it was hard to choose a photo, but this is the winner. I can't complain that I live so close to the coolest city park in the world. Giving up color for Lent.
  • Day 189 -Across the street from our apt is Jeckyll & Hyde, "Wacky fun for the whole family." I've heard it's a lot of fun and the food is all right. However the car is probably the best for me. Giving up color for Lent.
  • Day 190 -One of Christina's collegue's enjoyed a much deserved Guinness after finding out today that he along with Christina will be emplyed as resident physicians this summer. Two more days and we all find out where. A wonderful day. Giving up color for Lent.
  • Day 191 -A nice day for a walk across the Brookly Bridge, which always makes for a good picture of the Manhattan Bridge. Giving up color for Lent
  • Day 192 -I was just out taking some shots trying to make the quota. I thought this would do nicely, and it turned out good in black and white. Giving up color for Lent
  • Day 193 -This will surely be one of my top two favorite photos of the year. I know I'm giving up color for Lent, but today was just too special. Chrisitna found out her residency will be at the University of Minnesota, thus the maroon and gold flowers. She finally got what she wanted for once. I'm so proud of her. Giving up color for Lent... sort of
  • Day 194 -One of the locals stopped and posed in between drinks. They're quite beautiful creatures. Hope to take a ride before we head out. Giving up color for Lent.
  • Day 195 -Today was a really fun day because I got to celebrate my little buddy Aman's first birthday. He is the son of one of my oldest friends and as cute as a button. Giving up color for Lent.
  • Day 196 -Today we went to the MN State Fair, except we were in Brooklyn. A place called the Bell House put on the day complete with one of our senetors who used to live in NY. The had a food on a stick contest, which I could have won if I had entered. Sadly they had no french fries.
  • Day197 -sToday it was foggy so I used my monthly train pass to head to Rosevelt Island to get a good view of the city. Unfortunately it was too foggy. However I got a sweet shot under the Queensboro bridge. I also found Rosevelt Island to be quite charming, so this one is going out to its newest residents Dr. Pott and his Nurse Jenn. Giving up color for Lent.
  • Day 198 -I was inspired after sitting through a couple of art classes and having to create something with my feelings, or know where I'm going with my work. So I took this just because it looked cool and nothing else. Giving up color for Lent.
  • Day 199 -This is the Bat entrance to our apartment. Or the back way I take the dog out when I'm on garbage duty. Anyway between the rain and the black and white, I was happy with the result. Specail thanks to my friend who helped me pick it out. Giving up color for Lent.
  • Day 200 -Well I'm probably more surprised than anyone that I've made it 200 days. I guess that leaves 165 more to go. Giving up color for Lent.
  • Day 201 -Today was an epic day for Christina. After 23 years of schooling Christina left for her last day of education. It's been a long road and it won't be long for her to have that M.D. after her name.
