Day 68: Desk

I’ve never claimed not to be the sentimental type. This is the top surface of my work desk that I’ve had for almost 8 years.  It pre-dates all of my year-long projects. In fact it was at this desk that I decided to do my first one back on the night of November 3, 2004. It pre-dates the death of my father. It pre-dates me being a photographer, professional or otherwise.  Needless to say, there is a lot of personal history between myself and this piece of laminated wood product.

The new one which is replacing it is much nicer. It’s a bit smaller, which will hopefully lead to less clutter, and it doesn’t bow in the middle when I put my 57 pound monitor on it.

That said, I’m having a very hard time thinking about it gone.  So a portrait of my old desktop is today’s picture.  Marks from where I cut prints, coke can circles, spills, scuffs, paint, ink and all.

Day 61: Ed Dale

Ed and I have been facebook and twitter buddies for a while now. He started out a fan of my 365 Portraits project.
The thing is, he’s normally in Australia of all places, but today he was in NYC and so we had lunch. We got on like gangbusters and I’ve got the feeling that this is the start of a nice long friendship.  The internet is a grand idea.
