My house on Fire Island--2010--Episode 1

One of my photography project for this summer is called "My house on Fire Island". I will take pictures of my housemates, guests and parts of my house. I hope I can catch the essence of the house and guys. First picture pretty much gives you some idea, how much FUN we have in the house.

First weekend was very cloudy,so hot tub did overtime in order to entertain my housemates

Sunday morning all of us were exhausted.

Suddenly we decided to make a small trip to Cherry Grove.

Wait for next weekend pictures. Hopefully we will have a sunny weekend.

Alex & Enrico's bday party

Enrico & Alex

Well! When I got the email from Alex about their 25th bday party, I was surprised. Alex specifically asked me to do my blue flower magic at their party. Normally I don't accept blue flower appearance requests,unless their I do feel like to, but I thought this party was going to be FUN.

As I expected crowd was extremely cute and young.

Well! I shouldn't forget to mention, bday party at THE Cubbyhole. It was very unusual place for a gay boys party. We were surrounded by lesbians.

Don't think this cute girls are lesbians. Alex & Enrico had very chick straight girls friend, so I put my blue flower on them as well. What do we care gender anyway!

Z & Alex

I don't know but I had so much fun at this party, I don't mind going back to THE cubbyhole. I mean Bar Cubbyhole not female cookie!

I'm sooo bipolar on Mondays

Shockingly I wake up happy and un-shockingly with a sever headache at 4.30 am. I run to do coffee. Coffee is my best friend for bipolar Monday mornings. I try to convince myself to go to gym--- Fuck that! 

I feel so trusty! It seems unquenchable! And Starving! I crave for hard boil eggs. Weird! Here I am at 4.30 am in the morning boiling dozen of eggs in my my underwear. 

My husband realizes I'm up. Poor thing gets worried. I calls my name and " Honey! Why are you up? It is too early! Come to bed!"

"It is bipolar Mondays! Gggrrrr!!"

"OK! OK!..."

I manage to shower and make myself presentable. I walk to work hating the world. I move slower than normal as if I really wanted to be late to work. I make excuses. "Look at that ugly dog! Let's talk to her!"

"Hello doggie! How cute you are!" Her owner seems happy. He says '"Isn't she adorable?" -- NO! I'm not talking to you MORON! I'm trying to be late to work! Gggrr!

As soon as I get to office. Everyone starts greeting " Good Morning Z!" 

Aayyyyy! What Good Morning?%@! What are these people on? 

When was the last time Monday had a good morning. I take that as an insult. Don't you dare good-morning me agian!!

I occasionally snap at my assistant as an excuse I tell "Hello! I'm very bipolar on Mondays! Don't even talk to me!!" 

Right before to lunch time I load my body with tons of caffeine. Being over dose of caffein seems to be not helping my lack of sleep. I constantly yawn. On the contrary my bowels make overtime. I fart tiny little and poop multiple times.

At lunch time I'm so happy! I go to Bryant Park. It is two blocks away from my office. I love my life!! I love my job.

On the way back to office my murderer mood kicks in again. Yucks! I hate my life! These people on the street are f-ing annoying!--I know! I know! I'm very bipolar on Mondays. I just get used to it. By 3pm I start day dreaming. I see glass of chardonnay everywhere. Why can't they let us drink during the day?? At least on Mondays!!! 

After work I rush to home. First sip of chardonnay feels heavenly. My bipolar Monday finally ends. I feel exhausted! Being bipolar wears me out, but I look forward to manic-depressive Tuesdays or very hungover Fridays.

I'm sure many of you already know, but I will tell the story again. Recently I wanted to explore my artsy side more and started taking photography classes. Finally I finished 9 weeks introduction to photography. At the end of nine weeks every student got to do their own exhibition.  I did too !!!!!

Like every student who finished nine weeks (many of them dropped out)  I submitted my six best shots. All were black & white. My project's subject was signs. Here are the pictures.

Everyone at exhibition loved this shot. Yes I was sitting on the ground, while I was photographing this moment.

This picture was my husband's favorite. Guess where I was, when I clicked the camera?

This is very interesting technic. It is called panning. Basically I tracked school bus while it was moving. I was so proud I was able to achieve this technic.

I love this image. This is my decisive moment like Henri Cartier- Bresson. Basically I sat down and waited someone to pass by. Blurriness of the guy was made on purposely. I used very low shutter. That is an other technic.

This is another my decisive moment. I was in Chelsea. I wanted to capture a cute guy coming out of that tunnel. Well! I didn't have to wait much! There is always  lots of cute guys in Chelsea. You know what I mean :)

Last image is a reflection. I'm recently obsessed with reflections.

I hope you guys enjoyed the photographs. I will be working a lot to improve my photography skills. I'm planning to take more classes after summer. Also I dedicated another my blog for photography. It is called Z captures. You should visit there too.
