Scene from New York, I Love You - “Old Couple”
“Mr. I’m-so-independent-I-don’t-need-any-help-opening-the-pickle-jar…”
Love.
Joey Ramone - New York City [iTunes link]
From his just-released posthumous album ‘…ya know?’
An instant NYC anthem.
This one has Nick-Swisher-stepping-into-the-batter’s-box-in-October written all over it.
The album is really good.
I love the crescendo at the end of ‘Rock ‘n Roll Is The Answer.’
‘I Couldn’t Sleep’ is classic Ramones.
And ‘Life’s A Gas’ will make you cry.
Enjoy.
A collection of timelapses I’ve taken throughout New York City over the past year (2011).
Taken using a Canon 7D, Sigma 10-20mm, Canon TS-E 17mm, & Canon 28-135mm.
Well done.
Don’t miss John Williams and the New York Philharmonic in an evening of unforgettable musical highlights from Spartacus, Vertigo, Harry Potter, Star Wars, and more! Tuesday, October 25, 2011. One night only. Visit nyphil.org for tickets and information.
