Time Out New York - 5 Points

After shooting my Summer Streets video,
posting it here and then having it re-posted on the
Time Out New York blog here.

Time Out approached me to shoot a time lapse / stop motion piece for them at New York's prime Graffiti epicenter -

5Pointz: “The Institute of Higher Burnin”

If you don't know anything about 5Pointz check out the website 
Shot on September 11 at the International Meeting of Styles.

Thanks to all the artists who didn't mind me shooting them work and everyone else who was so welcoming.
I saw a really vibrant and respectful community (organizers, artists and friends) working really hard but enjoying themselves. - Lots of smiles!!

Respect to Jonathan Cohen / Meres One saw him uniting lots of good people.

I AUST ??

Late one night I found this piece of graffiti... It reminded me of being in Sydney, I guess just because of the AUST(ralia)

Hearts... NY [2]

They're everywhere.

Brooklyn Bridge

It doesn't matter how many times I walk over it, take people on a walk across it or see it from a distance, I just love this bridge. I still photograph it every time I walk across it, not so much the structure, I mostly love the cabling. 

Knee Surgery

Been a little out of touch with the ol' blog of late.
Had to get a meniscal tear in my right knee fixed up, putting me out for a few weeks.
Interestingly after i told 3 separate people in the hospital which knee they were operating on the surgeon came in and asked me a twice more before writing in a felt tip "YES".

A BIG thanks to my parents who I stayed with while I was recuperating...

Hearts... SYD[1]

more of those cheeky buggers. A really cute piece of graf in Sydney

Hearts... NY [1]

New York hearts, yes they are everywhere. That's why we love this city.

Warning signs

While I stayed in an apartment in Battery Park City, I walked past the Ground Zero site almost everyday for a week or so and would see people photographing anything and everything that they could, pointing their cameras into the construction site.
I wanted to capture something that most people probably didn't even notice or see, that conveyed something of the loss without being obvious. Almost like a ghost or the fading of something solid that was once there, these signs on the hoarding really conveyed this to me.

Election

It was great to be out in the city on  the night of the US elections when Obama was elected. Such a buzz and many people who voted for a new hope were in bars and on the streets celebrating. 

Vote !! Can't Decide..?

Carroll Gardens, at least the stickers are keeping in a neck and neck race...

Banksy Really ??

It was been rumored that these two huge murals are the work of BANKSY.
Confirmed! Colossal Media painted the works as per instruction. More details.
Broadway and Canal area in Soho / TriBeCa, New York.
