Yesterday was a gloriously beautiful day in the New York City metro area, that it meant only one thing - the ability to go down and check out one of the best areas of the City - SoHo and the High Line. All photos were taken with my Canon 60d and 18-55mm lens.

Egypt’s Descent in to the Heart of Darkness

Madness, power, and no good outcome on immediate horizon.
The military’s removal of President Mohammad Morsi opened up a can of worms from which the Egyptian polity is not likely to recover from anytime soon.
Morsi’s Muslim Brotherhood had been busy attempting to impose its socio-political will on a nation that was largely unwilling to go along with their agenda. The military was even more

Yet Another NJ Transit Trespasser Fatality
Posted on 07:00 by Unknown
Well, it's been a crappy morning all the way around. NJ Transit had yet another trespasser incident with a pedestrian killed by an oncoming train just outside the Radburn Train Station. That left the morning commute for folks on my usual train line screwed. Today's incident was about a 1/4 mile from the nearest proper crossing.
This one appears to have been a suicide.
That's after another such

2013 Festival of Ballooning

These were shot earlier today at the 31st Annual Festival of Ballooning, at Solberg Airport in Readington, New Jersey where more than 100 balloonists participated.
