NY- Times Square in the Morning
In the morning Times square moves at 60mph. The sidewalks are virtually empty. The partiers from the night before are sleeping, the tourists are still getting dressed, and the wide sidewalks are an open super highway for the locals hustling to work. It’s a busy and great time of the day.

NY- Radio City, The Rockettes, and Me
This summer I got an email asking if I was interested in licensing some of my Christmas pictures for a music video. It turned out that the producer was none other than the award winning David Agress and the video he was making was for the Radio City Christmas Spectacular National Tour. I sent him…

NY- Crane Collapse Memorial
And so my walk began. I zig-zagged down 50th and 51st all the way to the river. I took a lot of pictures, so stay tuned. I walked by the site of the crane collapse from a few months back. My cousin was left homeless after the construction crane came undone and ripped off from…

NY- Waldorf Astoria Lobby and Clock
The first time I ever came to New York on business I stayed at The Waldorf Astoria in a big suite. I worked for a TV station and the manager liked his sales people to travel in style, God bless him. Now that I live here I only get to go to the occasional black…

NY- New York Palace and Saint Patricks Cathedral
I dropped my wife off in midtown and was looking for a place to drink a cup of coffee when I stumbled on the courtyard at the New York Palace, right across the streeet from the back of Saint Patricks Cathedral on Madison Avenue. There were no benches, probably to keep people like me from…

NY- Grand Central Station Terminal- Food Court
When I worked around the corner at 38th and Lexington, The Food Court at Grand Central Station was my favorite place to go for lunch. Dishes, a sandwich shop near the middle, makes this Pecan Crusted Chicken on a Jerusalem Bagel and an African Peanut Soup that I lived on for months and still crave…

I don’t get to shoot from heights that often but when I do I really have fun. These are pictures of the sun setting on the media capital of the world, Midtown Manhattan. Enjoy

NY- Midtown Street Fair
One of my favorite things to do in the summer is to find a neighborhood street fair. I love to see all the different wares for sale from all over the world, enjoy the street fair food, and also watch people as they do a little shopping. This fair was on 52nd Street between 7th…

NY- Lehman Brothers Building- 745 7th Avenue
Who says banking has to be boring? The Lehman Brothers Building at 745 7th Avenue puts on a dazzling multimedia show that runs 24/7 and stands up to any of the buildings in Times Square. The video never gets boring and truly is a work of art.

NY- Serafina in the Dream Hotel-210 West 55th and Broadway
One of my favorite buildings on Broadway in Midtown is the Dream Hotel. They always put on quite a beautiful light show and the Serafina Restaurant on the street level serves really nice pizza. Bring your tripod and an appetite. Dream Hotel Serafina on Broadway
