Calling all sports photographers — please share this link for the World Sports Photo Awards. Entries close in three days (I am one of the judges). #wspa @WorldSportsPix worldsportsphotographyawards.com


W42ST is 10 years old this month, and I’ve just embarked on an interview series with some key folks who helped shape the Hell’s Kitchen neighborhood. First one published today with 93-year-old property developer Larry Silverstein. w42st.com/post/larry-sil…


Clean Art! Looking through the window at a late night cleanup crew working at Kasmin Gallery. The exhibition is Ian Davenport’s TIDES.

Bravo @nick_garber and the team @CrainsNewYork for this important research. There are now 14 nonprofits that have $1 billion or more in City contracts. #RottenApple w42st.info/3zhGEBh#https:…

Taking photos at the scene of a tragedy is a challenge — as is the decision on what to publish. I hope this post might help those who record, those who make publishing decisions and those who read local news. linkedin.com/pulse/tragic-i…


Really!? @abcnews is this the best headline you could run in Times Square 40 minutes after Trump was found guilty!


We love it when our local stories get picked up by larger media. In this case, John Lennon's official site reposted on Facebook and Twitter. Just imagine...

Looking at my @Shazam for music inspiration on Friday night. My first Shazams seems to be a long time ago (was this service really available in 1827!?) #dataproblem

Check out how the NYPL for Performing Arts reanimated archive photography from their theater collection. It's an interesting opportunity to bring alive some of those old news and sports photo collections for photographers, agencies and libraries. @nypl_lpa w42st.com/post/from-stre…


We got one of those AI created sites making a comment on @W42ST today about Concorde and trying to get a back link to their site. I marked it spam. The writing is obviously AI and the photo is hilarious. share24news.com/2024/03/concor…
