I didn’t wait for the last minute and didn’t need an extension this year. Thanks (again) TurboTax! BTW, I’m blaming the monkey when the IRS calls.

Project 365 – Day 32

Year of the Ox

Year of the Ox

My son Kyle and I decided to visit Chinatown in New York City to see the Chinese Lunar New Year Parade and festivities. It was a gorgeous Sunday for February… sunny and ~50 degrees (F). After a fun drive to Hoboken, PATH train ride to NYC, and subway ride down to Canal Street, we finally arrived in Chinatown. It was crowded, as expected, but we had a fun time wandering around and watching the pre-parade festivities.

By the time we finished lunch at Joe’s Ginger (which has awesome soup dumplings btw), Kyle was ready to go home… and the parade didn’t even start yet. No problem. I’m used to walking several miles when I visit NYC, but I realize that’s a lot for a 7 year old’s legs (especially with all the crowds to deal with). All in all, it was a great day spent with Kyle.

I posted a bunch of pics from our day trip to my Flickr. I decided to go with this shot for Day 32 of Project 365. I couldn’t even see what was on my LCD screen when I was shooting it, due to the sun. It was a nice surprise later on when I realized I had captured Kyle’s face in the bottom of the pic.

Project 365 – Day 30

Say Hello to my Little Friend

Say Hello to my Little Friend

I managed to get out for a little bit of exercise today… nothing fancy, just a brisk 2.5 mile walk in my neighborhood (Woodcliff Lake/Park Ridge). On my route I usually pass by the Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) Post 8946. They have an old WWII Jeep and an M114 Howitzer out front and I’ve always wanted to photograph them.

This pic was shot with a Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX3 and post-processed in Adobe Lightroom and DxO FilmPack. The stark contrast (and “film grain”, which can be seen if viewed at the larger sizes) is Kodak Tri-X 400. I used to shoot and develop with that film a lot in my early photo days and miss it quite a bit. It’s amazing how DxO can recreate the look of so many different types of film. Awesome software.
