New York Light V

is not famous. It may be that he never will be.
It may be that when his life at last comes to an end
he will leave no more trace of his sojourn on earth than a stone thrown into a river leaves on the surface of the water. 
But it may be that the way of life that he has chosen for himself and the peculiar strength and sweetness of his character
may have an ever-growing influence over his fellow men so that, long after his death perhaps, it may be realized that there lived in this age a very remarkable creature.

New York Light IV

Make Beautiful Manifesto

I am the creator, maker of moments,

Fighter of what I want versus what is expected of me.

I believe beauty is found in imperfections.

Every situation is an opportunity to capture beauty.

Today I open my eyes onto the world.

Embrace that it will become what I make it.

A place that has purpose.

Where stories inspire me to capture them.

It's time to share. Make the world right.

Make the world a work of art. 

Make Beautiful.

The IAC Building by Frank Gehry

Frank Gehry, is a Canadian American Pritzker Prize-winning architect based in Los Angeles, California.

His buildings, including his private residence, have become tourist attractions. His works are often cited as being among the most important works of contemporary architecture in the 2010 World Architecture Survey, which led Vanity Fair to label him as "the most important architect of our age".

“Architecture should speak of its time and place, but yearn for timelessness.”

~Frank Gehry

The High Line

The High Line is a new public park, built on an elevated 1930s rail structure located on Manhattan's West Side. It runs from Gansevoort Street in the Meatpacking District to 34th Street. The first section of the High Line opened to the public in June 2009. The High Line is property of the City of New York, and is maintained and operated by the non-profit Friends of the High Line, in partnership with the New York City Department of Parks & Recreation. The High Line winds above Chelsea and the West Village.

It has its own art scene, drawing students from Parsons sketching panoramas, and photographers armed with devices from cellphones to Leicas. It has its own neighborhoods and hot spots, shifting in feel throughout the day.

It even inspires crusty New Yorkers to behave as if they were strolling down Main Street in a small town rather than striding the walkway of a hyper-urban park — routinely smiling and nodding, even striking up conversations with strangers.

A little more than a month since its first stretch opened, the High Line is a hit, and not just with tourists but with New Yorkers who are openly relishing a place where they can reflect and relax enough to get a new perspective on Manhattan.
