It's taken me some time to accept this new way of life. To sit inside every day, to feel like we're waiting on something. I'm used to freelance life and this transition has to be easier for me than for most because I am used to the isolation. It hasn't been nice being sick for weeks. Luckily I can feel my body rebounding and the energy surging back. I've finally been able to go out and walk, and even to take a few photos yesterday as well as today. Which in itself fills me with great joy. I've kept a safe distance bringing a zoom lens with me for closer photos and I plan on dedicating the rest of my week to photograph this time in our lives. What I want to talk about today is accepting this. I for weeks have been fighting the reality of living in a box and finally, I don't feel so confined because I can't stop thinking about the possibilities of what I can do from my room. People have compared this to the plague, the great depression etc. etc. Bull shit. We have netflix, computers, E-books, AMAZON. For one second imagine being Anne Frank. Yeah, fuck that. This for many is time with family, time to build that business you've always dreamt of, time to exercise, time to rest. When in our lifetimes has the world said okay you can use this day's as you'd wish? Although we can't all spend them outside, we can use them for good. With that here are some more images of New York and hopefully this weekend I will be feeling well enough to set up a backdrop and keep myself at a safe distance to photograph more of the reality we now live in.
