Coney Island 2011
John Wayne Handy Jr. 46 years old. He was very upset and we were discussing why god has let him live, while just a day earlier god took the life of an eight year old boy. The boy was from Brooklyn and he was dismembered. He kept moaning “Why didn’t god take me instead” “I’m just a fucking Wino!” Yes, god was very busy rooting for the Yankees since he is also their pitching coach…

Summer 2011
My kid hates sports, so I’m trying to get her to take to the Frisbee in order to get a little exercise and also give me someone to play catch with. Most of my friends who claim to have been good Frisbee players, either suck or are world class masters…

The Rat Approaches 2001
I was at an exhibit in Chelsea during the summer of 2001 when I took this picture. Gunter Grass the famous German writer is also a pretty decent artist. This drawing of a giant rat approaching a city was the one I found most interesting and I decided to back up and include the World Trade Center. Now I find the picture more disturbing for obvious reasons…

Freedom Exhibit!
Chris Pape A.K.A. FREEDOM is having a solo show at “Dirty Pilot” starting Monday. He’s a famous artist because of a tunnel in Riverside Park, which was named after him. He did many amazing murals back in the 1980s and this exhibit will feature his work from the tunnel. I am fairly certain that much of it will be priced to sell based on previous exhibits that Dirty Pilot has had…
World Trade Center 1989
The search of my archives has allowed to me to find a few images which I don’t remember taking, but was very pleased to find!

Upper West Side 2011
I kept checking every hour or so to see if hurricane Irene had arrived, and she blew me off! That’s fine with me. She wasn’t so kind to people elsewhere, but as far as the upper west side is concerned, a big no show…

Coney Island 2011
I’ve had debates with my pal Dave Beckerman about whether or not, a person’s toes really matter when assessing a photograph. Being a perfectionist, I think they can make a difference. Most people would disagree. The famous picture which Cartier-Bresson took of the smiling French boy carrying the two bottles of red wine, is one such picture. It’s one of HCB’s top ten images and the cropped feet don’t really matter. I just hate small details which I had control over, but failed to control…
