photo of the day: summer in Woodstock: beautiful Hudson Valley

Mon, 28 Jun 2010 21:46:32 -0400

The Hudson Valley is maybe a half hour drive away from Woodstock and it’s a great place to take pictures. The only thing we couldn’t find
was a cafe or restaurant with view to the river. In fact, there are only a few of such places between Catskill and New York City and they are difficult to find.

photo of the day: leaving Manhattan: skyscrapers on W 57th Street

Sat, 22 May 2010 09:26:59 -0400

This is about as Midtown Manhattan as it gets. Tall, slim skyscrapers all over the place. The building on the left is the Carnegie Hall Tower. On street level it looks like an unimpressive 3 story building, so you have to really look skywards to actually see the tower part of the building.

photo of the day: leaving Manhattan: Times Square

Fri, 21 May 2010 10:17:39 -0400

For many, Times Square is the center of Manhattan. Of course it isn’t.
Manhattan has many centers and Times Square is literally a
Disney-version of a megalopolis around Bladerunner-age. Personally, I
like Times Square and I like Broadway shows, anyway.

photo of the day: leaving Manhattan: downtown

Wed, 19 May 2010 21:00:01 -0400

That’s a view from Brooklyn Heights, taken September 2008, on the
weekend after Lehman Brothers went down. It shows Wall Street in all
it’s glory, but behind the facades it probably looked very difficult.
The second building from the left is where my office is, btw.

photo of the day: goodbye Manhattan: North Cove

Tue, 18 May 2010 21:19:33 -0400

We’re not moving far away, but there’s some sense of farewell: after 9
years we’re leaving the small island of Manhattan. Reason to celebrate
with a series of typical Manhattan photos.
This one shows the North Cove at the World Financial Center - a great
place to enjoy a sunset and some margaritas at Southwest New York.

Actually this is Greenpoint, which is quieter and has many new buildings. A nice area too, but a little challenged in the Subway connection department.January 2010

photo of the day: Williamsburg: new developments everywhere

Wed, 28 Apr 2010 16:43:50 -0400

It seems to me that there’s a certain style of buildings everywhere in
Williamsburg. The apartments inside are usually duplexes with huge
windows. Spectacular but difficult to furnish. So we decided on a more
traditional one.
