Typewriter

Saw this at one of the exhibits in MoMA I think… I’ve never used a typewriter before, although there was one at home. Probably fortunate to have skipped that portion of technology since I’m prone to typos. After all, the correction fluid is my best companion back in school. This typewriter looks like something more […]

Cinema

George Segal’s Cinema (1963) is one of the more prominent pop art sculptures on display at Albright Knox Art Gallery. The last time I was at AK, I only had my iPhone with me and I snapped a photo of this sculpture too, alongside the other pop art paintings near it. AK has a huge […]

Manhattan Sunset

In my opinion, the best skyscraper to head to for a good skyline shot of New York City is Rockefeller Center. The reason is simple. You get a shot of the iconic Empire State Building in the picture. Of course, if you’ve only time for one skyscraper to visit, then I suppose it makes more […]

Liberty Noir

Every single time I’ve been to New York City, the sky is overcast. I wonder if it’s perpetually like that at NYC or maybe I lack the luck for good weather. I took this picture with an overcast sky. The sky wasn’t exactly on the verge of pouring, but I do wish for some break […]

Watching your back

The week has started pretty eventful with Libya finally liberated from Muammar Gaddafi (with his death). What better way to celebrate this good news than with a photo of the Statue of Liberty eh? Ok… I’m still sieving through my 3000+ worth of holiday photos when I chanced upon this shot. Well, I clearly took […]

Isis of Dendur

I suppose anyone who sees this picture would’ve thought I had taken this somewhere in Egypt. Well… Actually I took this at the Met during my grad trip in NYC. The Met has got to be my favorite museum in the entire world, second on the list is definitely Albright-Knox. 🙂 What about the Louvre? […]

Afternoon Tea

I can’t resist not posting this up. I had an awesome Friday with H last week… We had great food at a Vietnamese eating place at South Campus and spent our afternoon chilling out at Elmwood. I was in a jolly mood. I haven’t felt quite as happy in a while ever since something happened […]

Grilled Cheese Sandwich

I thought the only chance I’d get to see a grilled cheese sandwich will be limited to The Sims. Haha… Seems surreal to see the real thing in front of me.

Flatiron From A Distance

That’s the furthest my Mum allowed me to photograph the Flatiron. She didn’t understand what’s so fancy about a narrow pointy building. Oh well… I’ve got to photograph it up close the next time I’m there.   P.S.: I photographed this early in the morning. Chelsea doesn’t really experience that much traffic in the morning.

79th Transverse

It’s a bad idea trying to walk across Central Park via this road to the MET. Very very bad idea.
