NYC

You know I really wanted to take more pictures of this past weekend. Even with my phone it didn't really matter. However I got caught up in the moment forgetting to take it out. Granted I don't have pictures, but it was a fun weekend and I have the memories. Granted pictures don't fade these days, they just get lost. But when you allow yourself to get caught up in the moment there is something about the memory that is formed, at least for me. Unless it feels natural to take the picture sometimes it doesn't feel right taking the camera out. Taking the camera out can sometimes breaks the moment. When you're out letting out the stresses of the week that moment can be all you have.

I think that's why I take less pictures than I used to. I have for awhile been wanting to loose myself in the moment, enjoying it and my friends that are with me.

I feel I should add that the photographer that takes pictures of the nightlife has a very important job. He's capturing these candid moments of people loosing themselves to the music, having fun, and living life.

Attached is the one picture from this weekend. It's from Friday's most excellent party at Cielo where local Dj's Sleepy and Boo played.

Even on a rainy cold fall day, NYC can look so cool. Working like I do all around town I get some great views. This is the view from my home office in Chelsea. I love how the clouds are so low covering the top of the Empire State Building.

Even though the cold/dark days get me down, you want to know the best part of Fall is? Making and eating chili. I love a good spicy chili and cold rainy days are the best for it. A good beef stew comes in second, maybe next week? Tonight I am going to brave the rain and go to the store after work and make some good ol' Chili.

The sucky part about my day? Forgetting my umbrella, running late, and getting wet.
