The Spring 2014 semester is coming up in a couple of days and just before the beginning of every semester, I normally take some time and go through my firewire drive in search of photos that I can delete to make room for new photos. As I was going through the drive today, I was pleasantly surprised to come across a set of photos I took while I was in New York June of last year. I thought I had taken care of these photos but apparently I only took care of the wedding photos, which was the reason I went to New York in the first place. These photos were taken during my last full day in NY. After shooting the wedding, I decided to use my last day to go into the city and just...get lost. I remember taking a lot more photos than these but I suppose I switched from my camera to my iPhone which would explain the discrepancy in the number of photos and my memory. I believe the rest of the photos are hidden in a post somewhere in the archives. A lot of these photos are of the HighLine in Manhattan which was a really interesting place and a weird experience for me. Being surrounded by the lush green of a park juxtaposed and contrasted by the urban sight of old brick buildings, some new, was alien. But I'm from LA so it shouldn't be a surprise such a thing would be alien to me. I loved it though. Enough of me rambling, it's been awhile since I posted a photography entry...
