Bond 45

Basic Information on My Photos

Sometimes you guys ask me about what settings I had on my camera when I took some of these photos. I don’t mind to tell you that, especially that it is publically available and you can look it up your self as well. All you have to do is to click on the photo and open it in my photo gallery at smugmug.com. There you’ll need to click on it so it is minimized, then point to the smaller version on the right side of the window and you’ll see a little dialog box with blue letter “i”. Click on it and another little window will pop up with basic information on the photo. Like today’s photo is taken with f/2.8, ISO 200, 58 mm.

New York Street Signs

Well, the only reason I took this photo is because…well, really only reason because I thought all of these signs look cool together from this angle. BOND 45 in all three directions.

Street Level NYC

While walking in downtown NYC I had to stop on a red light and had a chance to hang out with a few other pedestrians. They didn’t mind. It is probably their corner in their hood, they knew that I’ll move away.

New York–Looking North

After I took “Times Square Reflections” photo I had to go back to hotel and change my shoes, they were soaked wet. When I went back out the rain stopped and most of the clouds were blown away. I decided to walk down the Broadway and see a bit of the city. When I came up to the Empire State Building I decided to check if they are still open, if was around 10PM – they were open! Up on the observation deck the wind was so intense and cold, not much fun to be there, forget about taking leisure photos. Their security does not allow tripods all the way up so I had to shoot it all handheld. Thankfully it was possible to prep camera against the walls and other stable objects and eliminate the shake.

Today’s photo is looking north west from the Empire State Building. BTW, photo like this is better viewed in higher resolution, just click on it to see it large.

Self Portrait

Times Square is full of surprises. It is not only that you going to see all kind of cool stuff, weird people and just a huge melting pot of everything, sometimes you might even get a glance of yourself on the giant flat screen TV. But it not ends there, you can actually make stupid gestures, jump around while watching yourself doing it. I guess little kid never dies in us, well, at least in many of us. I’m sure some people would never do anything like this in public. Because they are… just because they will not do anything like this in public.

Copper Roof

Following my last two Fridays undisclosed locations I’m going to try and follow this little tradition, as long as I can, and every Friday post some photos that are not obvious but more likely will be recognized by some.

I was walking around ‘this’ city ‘specific’ area and saw this building poking out between other buildings and kind of thought that it looks cool and different than everything else around. So I took a few shots.
