Old Dutch Church / Tree Window

First off, I have to give credit to another photographer for coming up with this idea.  I don’t remember the gentleman’s name (I’ll go find out soon), but he has a small art exhibit at the framing shop in Tarrytown at the moment.  His effort was executed with more precision, but the general idea is the same.  What do you think?

[update] the original photographer was Rick Prokop.

Exit to nowhere and Chimping…

Another shot of my garage in the morning before the daily commute.  It really is quite a dreary way to start the day.

On a side note, I’ve been hanging around in the forums over on fredmiranda.com and kept hearing about “chimping”.  I had no idea what they were talking about, but finally, a video explains it all.

Wood door @ Stone Barn

This is the door into the sample garden at the Blue Hill @ Stone Barns restaurant where Mandy and I have yet to eat.  I came across this near the end of the day while Mandy’s parents were in town, the weekend after we were engaged.  I don’t think I did it justice, but the light after our geocaching adventure was wonderful; the sun was hiding behing some clouds on and off and nearing the Palisades on the other side of the river.

Spot #11

The parking garage next to my apartment building has this gloomy, dank feel to it that I was trying to capture with this photograph.  I walk through it every morning on my way to work, and after a nice walk in the sun the garage, the actual garage is often a bit.. foreboding.  This is spot #11, where a neighboor parks.  Most spots in the garage have assorted stuff in front of them, giving you a minor glimpse into the owner’s life.

I’m still not sure what the chain’s for though…
