Shots while in NYC for a friend's wedding. [It was my first real chance to try out my new Nikon D300!!! I received it one day before my trip. The menu took a minute to get comfortable with but I was able to get great results with only one day of practice.]

Every time I visit with friends back in NYC and Brooklyn I am reminded of times... good, bad, triumphant and equally humbling.

Upon arriving for the first time I began realize that the city is truly alive...

NYC is many things to many people who call her home, and she has shared with me some of her lessons [and secrets] and it is a place where you can find yourself and lose yourself, make and even break yourself. There is an air of coolness here that most people will never experience.

That being said, I truly love Brooklyn - good, bad or otherwise. It has a "come as you are" attitude, a "rock what you got" place where anything is possible that I have rarely felt or seen anywhere else. I hope to come back many times to feel that brashness and when I leave - it remains and lives within...
