Let’s FACE IT – It’s Fab Foto Friday

Posted in Fab Fotos, New York Speaks, Only in New York, tagged , , on November 5, 2010| 4 Comments »

Murray Head who is my favorite contributing photographer to this blog, specializes in several areas of photography and you’ve probably seen most of them right here in the blog.  His pictures of wildlife, particularly of birds in Central Park are wonderful.  He is great at snapping photos of kids and dogs and has an artist’s eye when shooting a scene, an architectural detail and especially a face with character.   Today is all about getting a little face time with some interesting FACES.

JUST ONE MORE DAY-CAN YOU STAND IT???

Posted in Fab Fotos, New York Speaks, Only in New York, tagged , , , , , on October 31, 2010| 1 Comment »

It’s been a week of preparation, anticipation and participation in a couple of kid’s Halloween parties.  The candy has been plentiful so instead of just one night of binging on  peanut butter cups and snickers, it’s been a continuous sugar fest!

Now we are at the point of no return and some of Chiara’s friends are scrambling for last minute costume ideas.  Well here again are some of the best; a few might you be able to pull together in a day and some just so good, I had to feature them.

A trip to Ricky’s and H&M and maybe you and your friends could be supremely clever.

Three Days Till The Spookiest Night of the Year!

Three Screams Are Better Than One

With only 3 days left anticipation is building!  Some people are just too scared to go out trick or treating alone (and that’s not much fun anyway) so they travel in a pack.  Since there only three days before the Big Night,  I thought photos of some gruesome threesomes would be perfect for today!

FIVE DAYS TILL HALLOWEEN

I’ve been having so much fun with the countdown to Halloween.  Now that we are 5 days away, I thought it would be a good idea to feature some of the BEST Halloween costumes.  These are all very original ideas or excellent executions of known characters.

8 Days Till Halloween BUT Who’s Counting???

Posted in Fab Fotos, New York Speaks, Only in New York, tagged , , , , , on October 23, 2010| 3 Comments »

Whoooo I can feel the vibes of Halloween all around me.  I ‘m in Boston and today, Saturday, there must have been a big Halloween happening at Prudential Mall because we saw lots of little kids dressed up early today and heading that way.  Unfortunately Finley had to go home to take a nap and Francesca needed to be fed.

Anyway as the count down continues so do the photos from previous Greenwich Village Parades.

I’m calling this series The Devil Made Me Do It!

FAB FOTO FRIDAY – Counting Down To HALLOWEEN

Posted in Fab Fotos, New York Speaks, Only in New York, tagged , , , , , , , , on October 22, 2010| Leave a Comment »

Sometimes you can walk through Greenwich Village and see some characters you just aren’t going to find on Maple Street in Iowa.  BUT, on Halloween, THEY ALL come out of the woodwork, the closet, and some look like they escaped from the Institute.  These are photos from previous annual  Greenwich Village Halloween Parades.

Nine Days to go…. I’m calling this series Wigs and Wings
