about this project...

This whole thing started when I decided to do a 365 project in January of 2011 (one photo a day for a year). But then my camera broke. And that's kind of funny because it had finally occurred to me that you can't plan life. So I stopped seeking out photos to take and started living a little more. And I got back into volleyball, and I planned a trip to Tuscany and I took an Italian class. And I reconnected with old friends, made some new ones, jumped out of a plane, decided to play softball for the summer and discovered that I like to drink tequila and, hell, I even moved into Manhattan! And then the time was right so I bought a NEW camera to take some new photos with, and I'll share them with you here. So, welcome to my non-project. Or, as I like to call it, life.

Terra-Cotta Beauty

The New York Architectural Terra-Cotta Building sits humbly in the shadows of the 59th Street Bridge on Vernon Blvd in Long Island City, Queens.  The small beauty that can be easily missed if you're buzzing on by in a hurry, or can be mistaken for a boarded up parks department storage unit, seems to be in her glory at sunset.  Look a little closer and you'll see the brilliant detail that went into the makings of this tiny brick cottage, which was built in 1892!
