2008 YEAR IN PHOTOS

APRIL, 2008 McDuffie/Spinelli wedding Bay Shore, NY




















MAY, 2008 South Denver soccer field














JUNE, 2008 Jack & Bill, Newfield, NY












Editing & selecting photos is never easy, especially when you are attached to each one emotionally. I hope who is ever watching enjoys these selections. Each one tells a story unique to the year passed. I could tell the story but my belief is creating photos that require the viewer to make his or her own decisions about it. If I had to tell the story than the photography is not effective, that is how I see it.

Cheers,

Hard News NJ Goes Live

Congrats to my friends at Hard News NJ. Providing yet another way to make my commute into the city a bit more bearable. With the major newspapers drying up, sites like Hard News NJ will become even more important to the media landscape in months to come.

Chalk one up for the Doormatt - Value Cigars getting ink

Number one on my list a few days ago..... justified by today's Seattle Times.

From today's article:

"Just as folks seem to be opting for less-expensive spirits, those who enjoy cigars also seem to be moving from top-priced brands to more middle-of-the-road stogies, said Joe Arundel, co-owner of Rain City Cigar in Seattle's Georgetown neighborhood."
