Thanks, Lynn for the kind thought. I created this thread so that I'd have a place to put photos in bunches, representing how I make them... in bunches, from my walks 'around town'.

My wife, daughter, and I spent last week in fabulous New York City. Here are five photos to kick this entry off (more to follow in the coming days).

I enjoy looking at that last one, Jamie... Interesting to study details of the buildings and their roofs, and reflections.

Nice to see the NY photos in this thread where I can scroll. I love that picture of the flatiron building - as I commented in the gallery, it reminds me of Saul Leiter's or Ernst Haas's colour work.

More images from my recent trip to New York. The streets of NY are an amazing 'fishbowl' in which to wander with a camera. I used the excellent little Nikon 1 V3 for this trip. It excels at everything but night outings. Super low light is too much of a challenge for the little 1" sensor.

I could spend months wandering the hallways of NY museums! This trip we made it to the American Museum of Natural History and the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

One afternoon during our week in Manhattan, we took a train ride north along the Hudson River to visit friends. Here are some images taken from the train using the little Nikon 1 V3.

Visit with FrankS
Visit with FrankS
FrankS of RFF came through Oakland yesterday and laid over for a day. He's travelling around the country on his motorcycle; quite an adventure!
We shared some meals and a tour of the San Francisco area. Great talking with Frank, sharing motorcycling, teaching, and photographic stories. Great visit.
Here's a picture from the visit (I'm on the left):

Hi Jamie, thanks so much for your hospitality!
I was thinking about our discussion during the evening about your prints. (A motorcycle trip gives one a lot of opportunity to be alone with your thoughts and just think.)
If you unfocuse an image and just look at forms and spaces in order to see the composition, I think that composition should provide the viewer with either a feeling of balance, or a feeling of tension. One or the other. If a composition fails at providing either, it fails as a composition.
That's a thought that formulated itself while I was ruminating over our discussion. What do you think?
