The Cold, Hard City
On my latest visit to New York, it was bitterly cold, and overcast for much of the time I was there. The day it snowed, it was so hazy that almost every shot I took looked as if it had been shot in grainy black and white, even when it wasn’t.
So I decided I would share my “New York State of Mind” with you in that style. New York has so many different personalities—it is colorful and energetic most of the time, but it also lends itself to this kind of “gritty” portrayal that I love. I hope you enjoy it too.

I was privileged to see a production of “Jagged Little Pill” at the Broadhurst Theater. The photos of the performers were taken during the encore.
