Achtung! Sehr Kurze Hosen

Stockholm Fashion Week, where I posed as photographer/CSS programmer Hildegard Schmitt-Bürgermeister for mythical German fashion blog Achtung! Sehr Kurze Hosen (or in Swedish, Hallå! Mycket korta byxor) More -and better versions of these- coming soon...

The beautiful Jacob, who I think was in that Twilight film, ja?

Sunday with Andi

(yes, Andi just smoked all day. he says he doesn't do anything in moderation, it's either no smoking or 20 cigs a day.  i ate calamari)

Sunset drinks on Mary's balcony

Goodbye, New York (but hellooooo new camera)

Despite preparing to leave sunny NYC for LA, I spent half my paycheque on a coveted Canon 5D (Classic, that is, not MkII, and dammit I don't care). I'm still getting used to the new baby, but the potential image quality is already blowing me away... 

New York City, Day 6 - St Ann's Festival, Hoboken

Hoboken, NJ, home of Frank Sinatra (Kat adds, "and the home of the most organised crime in the tri-state area) and... the St Ann's Italian Festival.  Which I have to say, had the best. pizza. ever.

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)

NYC, Day 4 (Monday)

After giant pancake breakfast (the first time in living memory I have been defeated by pancakes), it was time for ... MoMA

Followed by lots of wandering including to the wonderful Strand Books via Union Square...

Spotting a Karl Lagerfeld-a-like and his ... girlfriend? daughter? PR assistant?

Forcing Simon to come shopping (at bloody Topshop of all places)

Then a fantastic Mexican place (Russell Brand spotted, but only because he was wearing a nice tshirt, I really didn't care who he was, honest)

And then, the inevitable taxi rides and a great little bar that even had Pimms and Gin Rickets. No Old Fashioneds though, to my disappointment.
