Halloween in Harlem

>

A few years back I shot a series on Harlem. I couldn't resist photographing the awesome costumes on Halloween. The kids were great. Here are a few of my favorites.

Lincoln and New York

I'm always on the look-out for great graphic design. Long ago, I did a lot of graphic design for my then-boyfriend's (now husband's) sketch comedy group. I really loved doing it. Recently, while scouring the Times, I came across an ad for Lincoln and New York at the New-York Historical Society. I love the bold colors, the photo they chose of Lincoln and the typography. I wish they had a poster of this because I'd love to frame it. It would look perfect on our blue, blue, blue wall.

While running past (literally, my husband is training for a marathon) a flag by Central Park yesterday for the exhibit, my husband and I decided that we must go this weekend. He's a bit of an old President buff - he's read bios on Lincoln, Adams, Roosevelt and FDR. I'm really excited about seeing it.
