An NYC Bone

Love, Tsunami

After watching Beautiful Losers yesterday, I had to create something for myself.

The movie was interesting to me for its subject matter but also because the events that were happening in the group of artists featured, were all happening around me when I first got to NYC. I remember seeing these artists in galleries back then so I felt connected.

Cream of the Crop pool as most favorited."/>

While checking up on the submissions to my Flickr pool Aeroplane: In Flight I was stopped by this photo for a while.

I was also pleasantly surprised to see that recent submissions have been staying true to the rules. Not so much editing as just admiring the photography.

Remembering the Rain

nycbone — Fri, 16 Oct 2009 15:58:50 +0000

I’ve remembered recently how much I loved the rain as a kid. Perhaps more precisely, being out in weather which is changing or not favorable, quiet in the usual way with a solitude or smallness to it.

One moment of weather I loved is the pending rain. As the kids were heading in, I’d grab an umbrella and go out onto the driveway, find a spot on the cement and wait for the inevitable. Umbrella open, held tight and close to my head, I’d crouch down and keep my patch of cement dry as long as I could. Even with a big umbrella and a light rain, eventually all the cement would get wet. End of game.

Was I?

I think I was in a Western. While at my desk today, I heard two hawk siren calls. It didn’t register right away.

When my brain finally came to question the sound, I walked out the back door and looked up. Sure enough, there was a hawk circling. As if in a Western, I walked through the saloon doors and followed the hawk as it soared to the highest point in the town (my neighborhood), to the cross at the top of the steeple. That’s when I realized I should have had a steady hand, ready to draw. Too late.

It’s the little things – diatoms

Somewhere along the line, in a science class, I was told about Diatoms and how they are used in the paint on the streets to make it more reflective. Every time I see newly painted lines now, I stop and look at the Diatom dust. Kinda amazing me that this was mined from the ocean and now it’s dust in a gutter, on it’s way back to the waters around NYC.

1995 Portrait of David Bone by Hiram Santiago

nycbone — Mon, 07 Sep 2009 22:17:44 +0000

Portrait Hiram Santiago shot of me one night of hanging out in his studio in 1995.

I found this today and thought to document it digitally… and egg on a few comments from those of you that only know my as a woolly mammoth of hair ownership. So for me, this is one of those old photos which give another memory at every glance. Almost 15 years later, I thank you Hiram.
