Upper east side, and Wall St.

NYC has so many angles and at night, so many colors. While I love B&W, there is so much structural information that the light carries.





And sometimes, the light's all one color and only a few other colors are strong enough to burst through.

Watching the news

I used to check the news and news/political blogs daily to find what fresh new offense had been committed, hurtling us further towards a single-party 1984-ish police state.

After these elections even though I know were're not completely safe I've stopped reading 2,3,4 times a day.

I feel safer now. I can relax. I am no longer frightened - and having directly experienced the WTC attack I felt much more afraid of the republicans in power than I have of islamoterrorists.

It's possible to be hopeful again. I feel as though a nightmare has ended. I know I won't feel that way once the new Supreme Court starts whittling away at our rights but at least there's hope.

Wheeeeee.

We're making dumplings.
