Hot Rod Thrills

Vol. 3 No. 17

The Rumblers 11th Annual Car Show took place this past weekend in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn, New York.  As expected, there were lots of screeching tires and engines, and so much to take in.  The line-up of custom and vintage vehicles seemed to grow again this year.  Here's a quick video to show you what you missed.

Garden Walk

Vol. 3 No. 16


An early August Saturday morning proved to be a blossom-hound 's delight.  As you'll see from my video slideshow below, the pollen transport team was in full operation.

Worldwide Photo Walk

Vol. 3 No. 15

With over 1100 walks and more than 33,000 photographers participating in last year's Worldwide Photo Walk, this year promises to be even better.  I have been selected to lead the photo walk that starts at Brooklyn Bridge Park's new Pier 1.  Our walk is taking place on Sunday, October 2, 2011.


Our photo walk starts out with a brief stroll along the newly opened waterfront space in Brooklyn Bridge Park’s Pier 1. Pier 1 adds 6 new acres of park including 1,300 feet of promenade along the East River, and 2.5 acres of lawn with sweeping views of the New York harbor, the Manhattan skyline, and the Brooklyn Bridge. A dramatic granite prospect made from the stone salvaged from the Roosevelt Island Bridge cascades from the two lawns to the 30’ wide waterfront promenade and serves as a tiered viewing deck will be our meeting location. From there we begin our walk north to Empire/Ferry Point Park, passing the Civil War-era Tobacco Factory, and end up just under the Manhattan Bridge on the Riverview Lawn.

To give you a sense of the area, i created a short video from photo walking the route this past weekend.  Hope you enjoy it!




This walk is open to everyone with a camera (point and shoot, film or digital SLR, etc.) at any skill level.  These individual walks are limited to 50 participants.   If that doesn’t sound like a lot, you haven’t seen 50 photographers coming down the sidewalk at the same time, and converging at once on a photographic opportunity. It’s more like a scary bike gang (except without the bikes, or gang, or scariness).


So, don't delay in signing-up for this walk, or any of the Worldwide Photo Walks.  This event is always a great social and photographic experience.


As a professional photographer and veteran photo walker, I offer the following promise: regardless of your skills, point-and-shooters to working photographers will all benefit from the experience.


Tips will be added as we begin the registering participants and will continue up to our walk day.


Please join us for a great photographic experience!

Sunday Stroll

Vol. 3 No. 14


A simple stroll in your neighborhood park could yield some great subjects.  This is true only if you remember to bring your camera.  


This short video is from my Sunday morning walk through Juniper Park in Middle Village, Queens.  With the weather staying so hot and humid, an early morning stroll was the only option.  This 55-acre public jewel was opened in 1930 and features sport fields, playgrounds and plenty of tree-lined paths.
