In NYC for PhotoPlus Expo
Jane and I went into NYC last week for the PDN PhotoPlus Expo—the tradeshow and conference for all things photographic. Walking to the Javits Center, we saw a NYC scene in great light and Jane snapped a photo of a painter enjoying his java before starting work.
Good classes, especially the Adobe Lightroom session and great keynotes by Nigel Parry on his celebrity portraits and James Nachtwey on his photojournalism over the past 25 years.
Went to The Ten Bells for wine and tapas down on Broome Street just north of Chinatown before heading to the PDN party in the Hammerstein Ballroom where we met some new photogs and had a blast with old PUG friends.
Checked out Robert Frank’s The Americans photo exhibit at the Met of his trek around the US in the 1950s–great stuff. Stopped at Anthony Bourdain’s old workplace, Les Halles, for a bistro bite before heading out of Penn Station (albeit 3.5 hours late due to lightning strikes) for home in Hartford…but today we got a call from Amtrak with free train tickets due to the delay!

Stela’s Family Photo Shoot in the Hartford Courant
While photographing Stela’s family in Elizabeth Park recently, Jane met Hartford Courant photojournalist Mark Mirko who shot Jane in action.
The dahlias were still in bloom and made a great backdrop for Stela’s beautiful family.
