Since my retirement ten years ago, I have been able to more fully explore different types of photography.  I am drawn to street photography and nature, photographing landscapes and wild life.

 

I’ve recently become interested in the building of high-rise towers taking place all over Manhattan.  In particular, I’ve been photographing a 30-story tower under construction on the corner of my street on the Upper East Side.

 

When the Vessel opened recently in the Hudson Yards, I was eager to see it and experience the climb to the top. What impressed me most was the reflective nature of the material that encases it.  At every landing of its sixteen levels, the Vessel’s structure presents new images of its surroundings.

 

My image, Reflections, is inspired by that experience.

 

The work of Aaron Siskind and Berenice Abbott motivate me.
