Look familiar?.... If not, you must love the enjoyment of Monday mornings at your place of employment.

Busy weekend, just getting around to posting 3 straight days today. Saturday night I decided to give my Chuck's a cameo out on the town. These are my favorite kicks that I own. RANDOM FACT: I try my hardest to actually get these dirtier. I feel like the dirtier the Chuck, the more of a story it tells. These have been my babies for the past 7 years....can you tell?

Rainy day today...

My music usually matches my weather. My mood usually matches my music. So I was easily influenced by John Mayer on this particular day (as I am most other days). Either way....enjoy.

Took a trip to Chipotle (Poats) for lunch and grabbed a shot of as rather decorative Chip.

Who doesn't like a glass of tea on a cold night?

Took my dog for a longer than usual walk today and he seemed to be enjoying the sites. I'll say this as un-cliche as possible. Dude's my best friend :-/

6th day of this challenge was obviously inspired from music itself. Rainy day, and a lousy one, I spent most of my day on my couch listening to music. I dabbled with picking up one of the 2 instruments depicted and going through some tutorials and lessons to better myself at 1 of the 2....I wound up doing both, successful rainy Sunday!

5/30 - IN THE ROUGH

5/30 - IN THE ROUGH, originally uploaded by Mike Manusama.

Shot for the 5th day of March....Got a new drinking game to pregame with. It is a mini golf course (real sand included!) The more shots it takes, the more you drink....Let's just say if you land in the rough, your night probably will start out the same way.

4/30 - MARCH FORTH

4/30 - MARCH FORTH, originally uploaded by Mike Manusama.

Today I took my March 4th shot a little to literal and made a piece entitled MARCH FORTH....pun intended. Did i lot of distressing to the picture (keep in mind, im a graphic designer first, photographer second). Bought a pair of army boots that I love to match the grunge. Happy Friday.

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.

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!!!
