Past Weeks Preview

Where to begin? My last few weeks have been a whirlwind of adventure and LOTS of photography. I think I’ve taken over 1,000 photos since May and have had little to no time to review them for posting here. I really need to improve upon that for myself and for my viewers who are always asking about what I’ve photographed lately.

To stem the tide… here is a small post with a few photos from each event I captured in the 3 weeks or so:

Me and My Pals in NY: In June I vacationed in NY, NJ and PA with friends from London

Gay Pride Parade 2009: Long overdue for a post, but I photographed the Pride Parade in New York

The colors really do scream, “happy.”

Makes me wonder what the clothing would be like if the parade was held in the winter

I visited the Apollo Theater in Harlem, NY two days after Michael Jackson died.

Thousands of names were scrawled on a wall in memory of the deceased pop star

UPENN Students Bridge Jumping

Yesterday, April 24th 2009, I was walking on the Schuylkill River Trail with my cousin and friend. We were thinking about walking to the Penn Relays which were going on that day but decided to just stop by the river and relax. Little did we know, it was also Hey Day for University of Pennsylvania Students.

“Hey Day” is a tradition for students to mark the advancement of each class.


19 photos, 1 video

These particular students were celebrating their Hey Day, or moving up to the next class year, by jumping off of the Walnut St. bridge into the murky, dirty, infested (with what no one knows) Schuylkill River.

Date: Friday, April 24, 2009
Location: Schuylkill River Trail @ Walnut St. Bridge, Philadelphia PA
Camera: Canon EOS XSi / 450D w/ Tamron 28-75mm. F2.8 lens / Video: Jailbroken iPhone 3G w/ iPhone Video Recorder

I’ve never seen the address located under the mail slot. Usually it’s at eye level. Also, purple door. :)
