In honor of Oscar Niemeyer passing here is Brasilia in Black and White...

Having been lucky enough to have the opportunity to go to Brasilia in 2010, I can appreciate the genius of Oscar Niemeyer. His architecture style was simply amazing. If anyone else has seen his work they can vouch for his ingenuity in working with cement, lines, circles and open space. 
So in honor of his passing I am posting a link to my Brasilia photos that I did in Black and White....enjoy.

The photos are at my www.flickr.com account...

I just started working with a great Photography site, www.Artstar.com

     When the Affordable Art Fair was in New York for their fall show at the old Tunnel in Chelsea I saw a fantastic Photo booth, www.Artstar.com, run by Chrissy Crawford. I inquired about collaborating with their company and here we are today working together with a number of photos.
     There are two sites that are associated with Artstar, there is also, www.Littlecollector.com, a very special site dedicated to the new young art lover in kids. I will have 2 images from a toy train shoot that I did.
     The photos are very fairly priced, limited editions and you can have them shipped to you framed which I think is an amazing concept.

Take a look...

Here are some images...

They keep finding my New York Sliced Photos....not that I'm trying to hide...I'm happy to be found....

As I searched on Google to figure out why I am getting so much play with my "New York Sliced" Photos I found on Tumblr and Stumbleupon so many reposts from so many people. I really want to thank everyone for plugging my work, it means a lot to me.
