Day 83: Event Horizon

My heightened sense of observation paid off for me on back-to-back days.  It was another nice day in New York City, so I made my way down to the area around Madison Square Park because it offers so much fodder for photography.  I was taking pictures of the Met Life Tower from 24th Street between [...]

Day 82: 9-11-01 :) HA HA HA

I’ve learned a lot more during the first 80+ days of the challenge than I ever expected.  One of the most valuable lessons has been to both observe and appreciate my surroundings (each and every day).  This heightened and highly trained power of observation resulted in today’s photo – a photo that will inevitably emit [...]

Day 81: Pepsi Refresh Project

Do you remember Pepsi’s Super Bowl ad this year?  No? That’s because Pepsi opted not to buy advertising during the big game for the first time in 23 years.  For comparison’s sake, Pepsi spent a whopping $33 million advertising its brands during last year’s game.  The company made a decision to drop the Super Bowl [...]

Day 80: Randallville Mill

The 365 Day Challenge can be, well, more challenging on the weekends in the suburbs.  Please see evidence of my struggles on day 73 when I took a photo of a creek.  Yes, a creek. I travel to the next town over every Sunday morning to compete play in an indoor soccer league.  We have [...]

Day 79: “Ugly Outfit” Pub Crawl

When deciding to relocate back to New York last year, Courtney and I weighed the pluses and minuses of making such drastic life change.  The plus that carried the most weight for us was the opportunity to be closer to family and to reconnect with old friends.  We had the good fortune of heading to [...]

I went back to the well and paid another visit to Madison Square Park on Day 78.  The park offers a number of different subjects to be featured during my challenge – boasting quite a collection of statues and monuments recognizing contributors to American history, including Chester A. Arthur (21st President of the United States), William [...]

Day 77: Steven Cosentino

The weather has been pretty amazing this week in New York.  I took advantage of the warmer temperatures and walked down to Madison Square Park (see Day 28).  The park was expectedly packed full of your usual cast of characters – street vendors, people eating their lunch, tourists and a painter. After blogging about the [...]

Day 76: St. Patrick’s Day

Declaring St. Patrick’s Day as one of my favorite holidays isn’t going to shock many people.  I’ve enjoyed a number of celebrations on March 17, but my most memorable St. Patrick’s Day took place in 2002.  I spent the spring semester of my junior year “studying” abroad at Middlesex University in London, England, so traveling [...]

Day 75: Workspace

“Do what you love or love what you do.”  It’s a cliché I support 110%.  I’ve been fortunate enough to do what I love and love what I do my entire career in the field of sports marketing and management.  I’ve worked for a variety of different organizations, ranging professional sports teams to collegiate athletic [...]

Day 74: Bus Shelter

After learning about the ‘new’ newsstands on Day 70, I took to the streets again to capture a photo of another piece of “street furniture” – New York City bus shelters.  These bus shelters were included in the agreement between the city and Spain-based advertising company Cemusa, a project that would replace the 3,300+ bus [...]
