After a couple of years of subdued celebration, people are getting out and hanging out with friends. The streets are showing signs of life and people were congregating, struggling to get into their club, struggling to just get along. Jason Wilder and I spotted a few fights throughout the night, but we just kept moving, […]
For my birthday, my family got me an Amtrak gift certificate so that I could have a getaway. At the end of September, Jason Wilder and I took a train trip down to New York for a 48-hour weekend photo excursion. After spending 7 hours on the train Friday, we hit the ground running. It […]
I mean, I don’t want it to sound like a bad thing, but I guess there are some limitations to interesting things above ground especially when all your friends are busy or suffering from a bit of anxiety about going outside, much less into the dark underbelly of Rochester.

It’s been pretty nice outside lately. Aside from the early Fall wind and rain storms, it’s been a mild Fall. Today, that’s changed. The weather dude says that this week is going to be a bitch. It started to snow this morning and will continue for a while. Which I’m okay with. Since having moved […]
So on a dark and stormy night, I foolishly trudged out to where the alcohol flows like milk and took pictures of the nightlife. Over the years the crowds have gotten smaller, but the attitude is still the same. PARTY! The rain didn’t hinder the celebration, but it did give me a chance to sit […]
