This is a photo I took with my iPhone 5S of a visit my husband & I (that is him in the photo) recently took to the exhibit @Large: Ai Wei Wei at Alcatraz in San Francisco. This particular piece is one of five located throughout the prison grounds & it's called Trace. It is made up of 1.2 million legos and it features portraits of 176 "prisoners of conscience" from around the world. What I found particularly beautiful & heartbreaking was something the docent told me-due to his own status as a political prisoner, the artist has never been able to see this piece complete, which I find incredibly moving.
Taken: 12/14

Driving south on route 9 in Delaware, well beyond the Delaware Memorial Bridge and Wilmington, you pass some fairly wonderful picturesque scenery. And then this--sort of a contemporary American Gothic, a bit unsettling but comforting familiarity all at once. That facility across the water is in New Jersey, the Salem Nuclear Power Plant.

I took think photo in Montauk, NY this fall. The best sunsets in NY are in the fall. The lighting is so beautiful.

I captured this shot by shooting blindly into the sky as the sun was blinding us at the Jones Beach Air Show in May. Four Blue Angels in perfect formation. Taken with a Motorola Moto X.

I took think photo in Anguilla while I was on vacation. I was driving and I saw this old bus, and I stopped to take the photo only to realize there were goats sleeping under the bus. They were so cute, but not very happy that I was there. I took this photo last February in Anguilla, BWI.

This is a photo I took in the park that is just off the FDR near Grand street. This is the Williamsburg bridge, the photo was taken o the Lower East Side on NYC in the fall of 2014.

In light of the NSA revelations and the CIA torture memos exposé, this image of police helicopters circling over one of the most recent protests in downtown Manhattan, shining their light, seemingly on the American flag, seemed a fitting symbol of our year. Shot with iphone 5S.

This is a landscape in Montauk, New York. I took this photo in the summer of 2014. I could not believe how beautiful it turned out!

I took this photo while standing near the shore of the east river in Williamsburg. I was about to get on a ferry to go to 34th street. It was a weekend last fall I believe.

WhAt happens when your college age son goes to study abroad in Italy during football season? He rigs up his and his roommates' laptops, televisions and tablets so they can all watch their favorite football teams-and monitor their fantasy football picks! He sent me this photo of his technological skill!

if a picture is worth a thousand words, what are all these thousands of marchers worth?
