Photo: New Shoes…

So, I really love these shoes, but they hurt after a few hours and so, I took them off and am working (in a cubicle) barefoot (I have flip flops for when I need to leave my cube).

I asked via Twitter if it would be acceptable for me to remove the shoes and work barefoot. Here were the responses via facebook:

On my way to meet Jon, Jen and Ces for brunch at Magnolia, I took some test shots to see if my 18-55 would work well enough to be the lens I bring to Portland, OR. I think it will work.

When I got off the train this evening in mid-town, the light was very odd…then I looked up. Creepy and breath taking.

Gallery: Old Friends

These are old high school friends. Well, Maria is – the boys did not go to my all-girls school, but, I knew them during that period of my life. Except for Greg, who I’ve never lost touch with. How’s that for a description?

I love that people who are looking for porn find Cock Lorge via my blog – I do hope they give him a listen 🙂

Someone – probably someone creepy is looking for my cousin Elke.

Artie Lang and Marianne from Brooklyn are regular search term items for this blog.

Passion Pit, Bear Hands and Kittens Ablaze are all bands that I shot for the first time last week.

The others are random searches that led people to this blog – which is pretty cool 🙂
