No ideas but in things

I'm the author of the chapbook "Call it a Window" (Midwest Writing Center, 2012). This is a collection of inspirations.

An Open To-Do List

I would add:

The Cloisters / Fort Tyron Park
Poetry readings (#shamelessselfpromotion)

This is a running list of neighborhoods / things I’d like to be photographing this summer, while I have my concentration on New York street photography.

Chinatown food markets
Brighton Beach / Sheepshead Bay
Bushwick buildings, structures and landscapes from above ground subway stations
The above ground Court Square 7 station
The Gowanus
Long exposures of lights in Times Square at night
The natives and locals of Bay Ridge
Occupy-ing

I’ll keep updating this as I get more ideas.

I’d love thoughts or suggestions for other locations, areas, events, techniques, cameras, film… anything.

Apparently, the building is slated to be turned into a restaurant sometime soon. Diana F+, Fuji Velvia 100f (cross-processed).
