USS New York on the Hudson River

These photos were taken yesterday morning near my office in the Newport area of Jersey City. The ship stopped briefly for a 21 gun salute in the direction of the World Trade Center.  Click on photo for album.

Final Approach

I converted this site from a blogger blog to a WordPress blog, so consider this a second chance at "Hello World". The photo was taken on final approach to JFK back in August. Visible in the photo are from left to right: Brooklyn, Manhattan, and Jersey City, NJ.  The film speed is forced to 1600, and the shutter was open for 1/4 second, thus the blurriness as I utilized the window as a "tripod".

 

Paintball

Two pictures from a recent paintball skirmish in Pennsylvania.

NYC Photos

I was working in Manhattan this morning, and had an opportunity to take a few photos from an elevated location in Lower Manhattan. The first photo was taken looking east toward Brooklyn. The bridges are the Manhattan Bridge and the Brooklyn Bridge.

The next photo was taken facing north, with the Empire State Building in the center of the photo.

The final photo was taken facing west, towards Jersey City, NJ, which is on the other side of the Hudson River.

Chocolate

My friend Jenny and I checked out Max Brenner in NYC for desert after her graduation. The sign should read "Chocolate for the Bald Man". At any rate, it was excellent, and highly recommended.
