NEW YORK, NEW YORK – This afternoon I walked over to the Guggenheim Museum to take a look at the new restaurant there, The Wright (get it!). Â The Wright and its architect, Andre Kikoski, won best restaurant design at the James Beard Awards earlier this week. Â Link to James Beard Award winners. I ended up not photographing the restaurant, but caught a detail from the Church of the Heavenly Rest (occasionally referred to as “the church of the overly dressed” referring to its Fifth Avenue location)Â a block north of the museum. Â Image taken with a Leica M9 and a 24mm Summilux f1.4 lens. Â I took more details of the Guggenheim – I’ve attached one of the images in a comment.

NEW YORK, NEW YORK – Fifth Avenue. Â The four month anniversary of my photo-a-day blog.
NEW YORK, NEW YORK – Another day shooting infrared. Â This time shopping on Fifth Avenue.
I have a large ongoing project working with the problems of photographing iconic places. Â Go to Google Earth – this spot in Manhattan has hundreds of blue squares – images uploaded by Google Earth users. Â Sometimes point of view helps. Â I have better and worse days – the image a day discipline has its downsides.
