New York City, Day 5, Yankees vs Angels

Sadly, the Yankees lost. Pretty badly. 

(with big thanks to Time Out New York for the lens! although as you can see it's taking some getting used to :) )

poor kid left before the game was over.

was trying to photograph the crackerjacks, but kat got in the way (kiidddiinng, had a few autofocus issues, but i like it anyway)

New York City 2

A trip to Queens ... where the drinks cart man seems more interested in the girls than the drinks.

Girls at MoMA's PS1 Warmup under the water spray

Kat & Simon at PS1 Warmup

The 6 Train to Hell

Slightly threatening free hugs at the Japanese street festival

Cute Japanese kid who was much more interested in my camera than the balloon his parents were trying to distract him with

New York City 1

Quintessential NYC firestairs (Soho)

A kooky shop called Evolution, perfect for scaring the kids. (I wasn't really supposed to take photos, but snuck a few in as part of my ongiong challenge to force myself to get the camera out in odd situations. You know, in case I bump into Jake Gyllenhaal or something).

Simon & Kat on the roof of the Met, among a bamboo installation. We wanted to find the one that would unravel it like a giant game of pick up sticks... we failed.

On the roof on 5th Avenue, basking in the glow of the Empire State - someone forgot to turn the lights off at midnight, according to Kat. (Yes I know that's not the Empire State in the photos before someone leaves a comment).

p.s. Really hating on my crap lens and 30D right now, pushing it to the limit. On payday am going to get a serious upgrade, and in the meantime, saving for a 5DMkII...
