3/30 - BELIEVE


3/30 - BELIEVE, originally uploaded by Mike Manusama.

"To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment”

This was my original shot for March 3rd. I liked the composition of the other one better, but I don't believe this to be an outtake because I like the way it turned out. The book was given to me with words and quotes to inspire me whenever I need to hear them. The above quote is one I drew from the book.

3/30 - LAST TRAIN HOME


3/30 - LAST TRAIN HOME, originally uploaded by Mike Manusama.

Couldn't find the time to post this yesterday, but I took it at the Rockville Center train station late last night - in the freeeeezing cold weather. I had something lined up for a shot that I did not think was good enough, and I figure you can always draw inspiration somewhere at a train station, whether it be from the strangers, worn down walls and sidewalks, or amount of people. Oddly enough, it looked abandoned.

2/30 - America's Most Famous Arena

The iconic ceiling....The New Look Knicks....

Need I say more? Not really much done well from a photographer's standpoint. This is more of a dedication to a team I am a true fan of. They got the win tonight and I got to see Melo in his first game as a Knick. NICCCEEEE!!!

TINY TOTS WITH THEIR EYES AGLOW

Decorating my space with a small Christmas tree, i decided to get two unique ornaments for my nephew, and my God Daughter. This being MY first Christmas tree, i thought the deserved a little special treatment. The Christmas atmosphere was flowing in my living room and I had to capture the warmth surrounding me.

11/3 - SHEDDING SUMMERS SKIN

Another shot I got at the world famous Central Park in New York City from one of the bridges.

Summer, I hate to see you go, but I love watching you leave.


...turns out that some of New York CIty's brightest colors don't only exist in Times Square and can be found during the day as well.

11/3 - CITY LOVE


11/3 - CITY LOVE, originally uploaded by Mike Manusama.

Failed attempt at a photography course in Central Park left me alone in the middle of Manhattan surrounded by the fast paced city. In kind of a bad mood, I wandered, and wandered....until I lost myself. It was by far the one of the greatest experiences I have ever done....alone. I shot most of Central Park and its foliage, in its beauty, however, i enjoyed this picture the most. As the sun set on the water in Central Park a couple sat and enjoyed all the view had to offer.....little did they know I was doing the same. I love the way it came out.


I have taken a shot like this before, but it was not as close to as good as this one. Consider it an upgrade ;) . Anyways, I am a sucker for watching couples doing nothing more than enjoying some alone time together. Promise ill be back with more shots more regularly!

Pressing "L" gives the picture a little more justice!
