PHOTO FOR THE DAY
I've been going through my photos, finally, and have found many from past trips, get-togethers and adventures. This past April, I was in New York city again for the North East Astronomy Forum (NEAF). An unexpected and most enjoyable surprise was 3 extra non-work related days in New York City. Adventures abound! including strolling the streets and marveling at exactly how tall the buildings are. So different than the mostly 1 and 2 story buildings in Tucson.

911 REMEMBERED
Ground Zero October 2010. We stopped on our cross country trip. Even 9 years later it was still an eerie and devastating scene. A gaping chasm of open space. Filled with the emotions of the people viewing the site from the repaired building across the street. Individuals from all over the world speaking a myriad of languages, with one thing in common, when they spoke, they all spoke through tears.

ENTRY TO A HUNDRED STORIES
Aside from the gaping at the people, businesses, and buildings and wishing I could try out a fire escape just once (yes even with my fear of heights) I also stop and stared at the myriad of entryways to the buildings. So different than Tucson.
It is a good thing those New Yorkers were quick on their feet. They managed to narrowly miss me each time I came to a dead stop directly in front of their speed walking path when something caught my eye. As I set each shot up, wishing I had a ladder for a little more height or more room to get the right angle, I wondered what was behind those doors. None of them opened while I was shooting the photos so I could get a peek inside. Leaving me to create the stories, answer the questions, all by my self.

FIRE ESCAPES AND OUTDOOR MARKETS
So I have been extremely remiss in posting on this blog. I’ve been spending my time posting over at the Cult blog; hanging out with the cool kids behind the school, or at the dog park, as it were.
Though I’ve been busy, there hasn’t been much new news from the Backcountry offices. I have been mostly working at Aerolite Meteorites. (perhaps you have heard Meteorite Men has been picked up for a second season!) We are trying to get things together enough that Geoff can be gone for extended periods of time and the business can still function. In fact if you swing on over to the site, to this link in particular http://www.aerolite.org/buy-a-meteorite.htm you will behold a thing of beauty…a new web page (with meteorites available for under $200) featuring product photography by me. Tah Dah.
Anyway, between working and playing with the dogs, I managed to sneak in a bit of traveling. As seen in my previous post, I was in New York for a few days! Though the trip was work related, I was able to squeeze in some photography time. And whoa boy did I have fun. I will admit I was a little obsessed with the fire escapes and outdoor markets.
