There are a lot of images buried in this webserver. I never thought of myself as a photographer, and I make no claim, but here we are. Starting with my Cannon AE-1 on film, until today, with my Cannon T3I rebel and my new G9X, I've managed to rack up thousands of images, and many of them are worth seeing, just for artistic purposes. I think I will start posting a few of them here, just to exhibit them and to give regular viewers something to enjoy from month to month.

This is a photograph from my Grandmothers house, which was near her
piano, is a scene of corperal punishment in a Yiddish Cheddar. SHe loved
this painting, but it was impossible to light up to get a good picture
of it in situ.
One of my favorite children pictures, this one in Lake Placid. From top to bottom, Dovid Shimon Safir, Aviva, Rochel Safir, and Schmuel Leib-Eliezar Safir
One of the two tapestries that my mother produced in one of her
more manic phases. She had a friend, Elaine Wolff and they
worked frantically on these as a hobby. I remember her picking
out the correctly colored threads. Many families have historical
tapestries, but my mothers work was genuinely extraordinary.
One of my exceptional photo edited images of my coins. This
coin was part of a larger silver collection of endangered
species, and is the front and back of the Monarch Butterfly.
The image itself was part of a set of experimental images made with
the GIMP of coins.
A lovely chance picture in front of the Lexington Avenue entrance
of Grand Central Station, bathed in a stream of winter light.
Pop Torello - a random yet famous Brooklyn sign on a building that nobody ever has the heart to take down. It speaks to a Boro of community, and of days gone by.
Prospect Park - Green beyond imagination
The Gowanus Canal from the Carol Street Bridge
A Romantic Image of Sheepshead Bay looking East from Stella Maris
