6 a.m. drug bust

Last summer I was held up at gunpoint, now this...



I took these pictures this morning at around 6:00 from my bedroom window. I was woken to yelling/screaming and gunfire. It took me a while to figure out what was going on (I thought I was dreaming) but my drug dealer neighbors finally got busted. Don't know if anyone was shot because their house is adjacent to ours so I couldn't see too much. Two ambulances left shortly after things started to simmer down but I don't think anyone was hurt. Crazy!

Anyway, It might be time to move. -P

My first published photograph!


It was in Boston's Stuff@Night magazine as well as my favorite local newspaper, the Weekly Dig. No money, just credit for the photograph. I took it an extreme beer fest a few months ago just messing around with some high speed black/white film and fast F/2 lens on the old Canon A1. (FYI. extreme beer = high alcohal content!)

NYC 5 Borough Bike Ride


Hmmm, it's been a while. This site is getting stagnant and needs some updating. Here are some pictures from this years 5 Borough Bike Ride in NYC. I got to play around with some night photography using the Canon A1 and a 18mm wide angle lens.
