WARREN CONNECTICUT – Again, the evening light mimicking Fall.

WARREN, CONNECTICUT – We spent the long weekend in Connecticut catching up on our various neglects resulting from the Africa trip, and in my case reconnecting with the soft, warm light and deciduous hardwood landscape of the rural Northeast. There was a autumnal nip in the air and the early evening light foreshadoed fall.

NEW YORK, NEW YORK – On my way to some meetings I stopped at one of my favorite spots in New York, Lever House, which has a varying selection of provocative art. Lever House had a new installation of the work of Mike Bidlo, a conceptual artist who “appropriates” the work of other artists, in this case Andy Warhol’s 1984 work “Brillo Boxes”. Bidlo calls this work “Not Warhol”.
What follows is not a photograph. It’s a piece of conceptual art that I’m calling “Neither Bidlo Nor Warhol”.

NEW YORK, NEW YORK – Another attack of the photo-a-day blues. I’m really focusing on editing my Africa work – photographing New York seems dull. The best i could muster was a shot of a shadow of a water tank out my window.

HEATHROW AIRPORT, UK – We left Sunday night for the trip home, via London – over 20 hours including a three hour layover at Heathrow. This was one of those days where even taking one photograph was a burden. The insides of aircraft don’t have that much to say to me, and the world in general seems colorless after East Africa. I take a few listless shots at Heathrow. We are indeed out of Africa.
