Cracking Up
Spring in New York City
Some things are really hard to capture in photographs.
Today I have a video for a change :-)
The annoying DKNY wall on Lafayette & Broadway
I always found this DKNY thing to be a bit annoying. Why? Because it screams for a photograph. You come around the corner and you get the feeling you just luckily discovered a great subject to photograph. The next thing you do is standing right in front of it noticing how large this thing is. A barely fits into the frame, and the result is a dull picture of a painted wall.
Now I think I know how to deal with those things. It is still the reason why I took the picture in the first place, but I pushed it a little bit in the background so the viewer's eye can have the pleasure to discover it itself.
Pink Window
OLIVA
This picture looks so random that I almost started justifying its existence, but I'll keep myself from doing that. Pictures that come with less text are often more interesting...I heard.
One thing that I noticed though, while going through those photographs for the first time was the name of this restaurant. It instantly reminded me of an ex-roommate of mine who used to always call me Oliva. She did this to mimick my pathetic attempts in pronouncing my own name in American English. I think I improved a lot in pronouncing it, but she still calls me Oliva. She does that with such a passion, I fear that she will keep doing that foreva.
Anyway, just a little story on the side in case this photograph doesn't tell you anything.
