World Trade Center, One Day Before the 9/11 Tenth Anniversary
Saturday, September 10th, 2011Was just scoping out the scene at WTC around 4 p.m.today, when I came across this pose below. They fly combat planes and fight fires so this picture shouldn’t be a big deal but the last time this photographer saw one with an automatic weapon was in Washington Heights, Manhattan, about 25 years ago: A Secret Service agent, blonde, white and in her mid 30s, briefly flashed the submachine gun concealed under her long coat to another agent, male, white, with whom she was talking. A visiting Dominican dignitary was visiting near 169th Street and Broadway.
The next picture is a hoot.
Differentiating “Gray” from “U.S.”
Sunday, July 17th, 2011Regarding warranties for photo equipment: I just came across this site and it seems to provide good info for those interested or serious about photography: Mint Mog Store. When I was younger, I experimented with Gray Market purchases. But now, I don’t.
That doesn’t mean that others shouldn’t.

Suspicious Package at Herald Square
Monday, December 20th, 2010
Looking South on Sixth Avenue, Herald Square.
After arriving at the Herald Square area about 1:30 p.m. from a doctor’s appointment – I biked in from Second Avenue and East 36th Street – and planning to hop the PATH back to Jersey City, and then seeing all the NYPDs coming into the area and POs roping off corners, and wondering what catastrophe was in the works until I heard a PO bark at a bunch of people to “move back” and maybe hearing something like, QMfE, “You don’t want to be near here … bomb,” or something like that, I started scurrying for a good shot.
