Spring Dump 2012

I don’t have much to say about this dump except that it was hard to edit it down to 20 crappy photos from 80 crappy photos.

Photo Dump, Winter 2012

Hey kids, Here are some photos taken over the last few weeks. Mostly featured here are late-night shots of Madison Square Park and a couple of Hoboken. My next set should have some flowers.

Why didn’t I think of this?

Update: Here’s a blog where the proprietors photoshop out the the dead people from album covers. via Dangerous Minds.

Hot August Night Gallery

Here are some miscellaneous night photos I took over the summer, all similar in subject matter to what I’ve shot before. The difference here is that I started doing some color correction for the pervasive outdoor tungsten lighting that is now in most urban cities. Enjoy!

Hugh Haggerty Photo Show, August 2011

I’ll have a total of seven photos on display at SIP for the month of August with a reception August 4th, 6-9 pm. SIP is a small bar/restaurant and this is very informal. I usually DJ there on Thursday nights and will be DJing early and late the night of the reception.

As New York gentrification hits more remote spots, I have my doubts that certain places will change as rapidly as some neighborhoods did in the past. (Also, my photo show at SIP may be postponed. Stay tuned.)

Photo Show at SIP

I said this a while back back but I’ll have a (very) small exhibit of photos up at SIP (998 Amsterdam at 110th St, NYC) starting around July 2 for the month with an opening reception on July 7. Expect surprises but no dick shots of course.

Dante Park

I was setting up at Lincoln Center (after midnight) and got booted so I took these shots across the street at the small park across the street. This was a couple weeks ago before the spring leaves came in.

Yesterday, I watched the movie, Fair Game, which is a not very fictionalized account of the Valerie Plame affair. I’m both amused and disgusted with reviews in various places that say the movie is complete fiction and the reviewers trot out all the fake GOP talking points (i.e., Plame was a CIA secretary) and rant about how anything with Sean Penn isn’t worth watching because he is obviously a communist.

Anyway, Ms. Plame in the DVD commentary says at one point: “Look at that! Great shot. Whole lotta nothin.’” She’s talking about a desert shot in the film but for a second, I felt a little vindicated in my aesthetic.

All Knotted Up
