Anacapri and Desmond

Anacapri, a reserved lady who braved coming out of the bedroom to meet a stranger.

Desmond, a furendly toothless mancat who's roughed it on the streets.

I had the pleasure of hanging with my friends' cats for an evening as their place was being packed up for a move.

The Forecast Called for Rain

I happen to work many stories above the street and very close to the Empire State Building.

Not that being so close to the tallest building in New York means much to me. Landmarks fail to excite me. Rather, what I find interesting is how different any one thing can look on any day. With New York's unpredictable weather and the ensuing human dramas, there is no end to the story.

The Empire State Building's shape is particularly interesting because no matter how foggy it is, the antenna may occasionally peek out.

Above is what I observed last Wednesday evening. My building is being worked on, so cables are part of the landscape. Below are photos I made today, which is the third consecutive wet and foggy day in New York.

A Well-Lit Cat

I couldn't have asked for better light.

Running away from me.

Mystery Mancat

I had a hot date Friday night in Central Park with a mystery mancat. He is A-dorable, laid-back and all smiles, except when he's lifted into the air against a warm sunset. To see more photos, check out my Facebook fan page. And while you're there, "like" me.

New Leaves

Sakura Matsuri

I rarely photograph flowers. But I happened to visit Sakura Matsuri, the Cherry Blossom Festival at Brooklyn Botanic Garden.
