NY Times articles

So below is a fun little video clip from Bill Cunningham at the NY Times. This week he's taking photos of all the really colorful people at the New York City Marathon this year.

Check this out another one from the Times, submit photos of yourself in your natural surroundings. I always say I'm going to take some photos and submit them, do I? No, but maybe tomorrow I'll pull out the DSLR and take some shots. Hope you do to :))))

I want to be Bill Cunningham

If you don't know who Bill Cunningham is, it's not that big of a deal. I mean you are missing out on something but not everybody has time for New York fashion. You got kids at home, 2 jobs, you wear one pair of jeans, of course you don't have time. The multiple job thing is the only part of that which applies to me directly. So Bill Cunningham takes photos of people on the streets of Manhattan and 35 years ago the NY Times started publishing them weekly. He usually does themes, white clothes one week, hats the next and so on. I suggest you go to this link to check out the great videos he puts together now for the web. http://www.nytimes.com/2013/11/03/fashion/bill-cunningham-costumery-on-the-street.html?ref=fashion&_r=0 .

Another great choice is Richard Press & Philip Gefter's documantery Bill Cunningham New York.
