Starn Twins attract lightening

While exploring Mike & Doug's installation on the roof of the Metropolitan Museum in New York, we discovered a lightening rod on the sculpture. Seems there are engineers working with the brothers on this gigantic bamboo wave.

The installation is ongoing. They are still building. I'll try to get a pic of the wave when it's complete.

Peter Coffin goat and cracker

At City Hall, near the amazing fountain with working gas lanterns, Peter Coffin is on exhibit until the end of this month. I'm keeping his goat fed while it's here.

Happy Mother's Day mom. Me & cracker.

Happy Mother's Day to everyone's mom, but especially to mine! This is our Conservatory Garden in full bloom. The crab apple blossoms have already come and gone, many of the irises are done, the dogwoods and magnolias are now a burst of green, but the tulips are having their run.

Mark di Suvero and Cracker

I once worked on Wall Street, believe it or not. I was Dick Grasso's personal photographer. No kidding.

There are lots of great sculptures in the Financial District. Guys play backgammon and chess at lunch time under this Mark di Suvero sculpture.

Noguchi and cracker

At Liberty and Broadway in the Financial district, there's a giant cube -- and now a giant matching cracker! (A very temporary installation)
