AIM Magazine Special Edition: COVID-19

I have prepared a special release of off the cuff photos taken with my IPhone of the unfolding of the Corona vIrus crisis, mostly on Staten Island. It contains a Timeline of events with the photos from Axios.

I have just published a new edition of AIM, my personal photo magazine.  This issue the best of 2019 after a long absence, as explained in my comments “Taking AIM”. I hope you enjoy.  You may browse a free PDF of the magazine through the following Google Drive link:

It’s been a while since my last posting I know.  But I have been busy with a number of things, most notable tending to the Estate of a late relative.   For now, I have assembled a new video for Youtube that I would like to share.

It’s based on the rendition of “Silent Night” by Simon & Garfunkel in 1967, “7 O’Clock News/Silent Night” using news tweets from m,y Twitter Feed.  I call it:

“Silent Night/News Tweets”

Fans of the FX series “The Americans”, (of which I am one), might be interested to know that the scene in last nights episode which was supposed to be in Yugoslavia, (where Philips son Micha runs into some problems) was actually shot in Staten island at Snug Harbor Cultural center, where there are some archways in between the Greek Revival buildings. I photographed there today using my Holga, to get a real vintage Third World effect. Incidentally, a great deal of this season was shot on Staten island in this neighborhood around Snug Harbor.
