      Beautiful. Just stunningly beautiful.

      I've been wondering. Is the City of New York paying you for making the city look so enticing and sexy?

      It's a pretty sweet deal. I get all the rats I can eat.

      Actually, I wasn't even thinking Bruce when I titled it Dave. I have another shot, more canted and that one was called "Synchopation" so I titled this one "Straight Time" because of the angle. It doesn't really make much sense now, becasue I removed the other shot, but I'm still not inclined to change it.

      I am so jealous. I've been listening to a couple of bootlegs of the shows recently. You are in for one HELL of a great time. He reinvents so many of his old hits ("Open All Night" as a big band rave up, "Johnny 99" as a funky Ani DiFranco inspired thing... so cool!)

      Really like this, I don't have much criticism for you expect for depth of field. I think it would be stronger if there was a shallower depth of field, lower f-stop. 7/10

      OK, I did it. Excuse me while I throw up now!

      This is wild! One of my favorites of your shots, among many. The perspective, the light, the rich contrast and all that dizzying repitition. Fantastic!

      Hi, Allison. I think your office is right around the block from where I took this on 47th.
