Tulips Everywhere

Tulips to the right of me tulips to the left of me - everywhere I go there are tulips in beds, in pots, in window boxes, around trees, and in pots on the street. Red, white, purple, red and white, yellow and orange... Growing from planters, in front of buildings, all over the parks and sold by the bunch at every fruit stand and florist. Is this really the only spring flower? Yipes.

Shouldn't really complain, this has been a gorgeous spring in New York City. I venture out to shoot dosed with generic Zyrtec, and still come up stuffy and sneezey (grumpy and dopey, too).

Settling In

We are settling in, and the neighborhood is a-swirl with cherry blossom petals.

I'm going through the throes of upgrading; first the camera, then a larger monitor, and since there is no computer too fast to be slowed to a crawl I'm either going to add memory or get a new computer.

At times like this the digital revolution seems more like a well oiled machine designed to suck money out of my pockets.

However, this is one glorious spring - I live near Central Park and there has been an explosion of growth and color. And since I have gone back into always carry a camera mode, I've been piling up pixels like crazy.

The question still remains - how to freelance in the current photographic world?
