Chelsea in BOOKLET Nr. 4
















My Nikon D2X was set at HI-2 (3200 ASA) for this entire story about the neighborhood of Chelsea in Manhattan at night, with its more than 400 art galleries. The camera was usually hand held at a shutter speed of 1/5 sec at f5.6. The story was produced for BOOKLET Magazin fuer Fotografie, a magazine published by gosee (gosee.de), the German PR office for photography , with sites for France (gosee.fr) and the US (gosee.us)

Men Can Dress Too !!
















Since there is not much happening in my photographic life right now I show a few images from this year's traditional carnival at Victoria Square in Port of Spain, Trinidad. These 'sideshows', not much noticed by the general public, where my favorites this year.













































I am leaving for Germany next week to shoot film stills for 'The Women from Checkpoint Chary', quiet a different scenery...I will look at these images and remind myself of the colors of Trinidad & Tobago, when eastern Germany's sometimes grey sky gets too grey...but hey, there is the 'Karneval der Kulturen' in Berlin including a big parade on the 4th of June !!
