NEW YORK NEW YORK – I stayed in town this weekend for an number of reasons – the best one of which was a birthday party for Francesca, our daughter, given by some friends. Here they are shot with my Ricoh GRD IV. The on camera flash on this thing isn’t all that bad.

Here’s the last of the self variations that I’m going to post. Here I divided the print plane into quarters and placed a quarter of an image from each of four different times, and blended them.

NEW YORK, NEW YORK – We gave a birthday party for our daughter, Francesca. We’ve done this before, actually quite a few times, but they stopped playing pin the tail on the donkey quite a few years ago. I’ve posted a bunch more pictures of this event on my flickr account. Here’s Francesca and her mother, Maria (in her vintage Emilio):

NEW YORK, NEW YORK – Another tough day for choices.  I went out at sunrise to photograph the Congregational Church in Warren, Connecticut, to pretty good effect.  We drove back to New York and ended up at cocktails celebrating Jonathan Galassi’s birthday.  I cute child at the party edged out the church.  I’ll go back to Warren on another day, perhaps in the snow, which will be here soon.
