Coney Island Jaunts and A Peek at the Food Network Office

Good morning! I have recently moved to New York for culinary school (see my other blog for more!), and I've spent the past few days exploring. This week, I went to the beach at Coney Island and then wandered around the amusement park. 


Take a look at some of the sights, if you've never been! I was debating on what to get to eat on the hot and humid day, so I settled on a $5 frozen lemonade. So refreshing!
 Also, I will begin my job as a freelance photo editor at the Food Network shortly, so I went to the office this week to check it out and meet the team. Read the story and see more photos here!
 Finally, on my way back to my home base, I stopped off at the Bay Parkway station. This is what I saw:

Capturing Natural Spirals

Water is so interesting. The two little hydrogen and one little oxygen molecules flow together in solid (ice), liquid (water), or gas (vapor), and can also pick up traces of sediment or leftovers, depending on which environment it runs through. When water is cast off from something, it can behave in different ways. See my  previous post for some odd water behavior. Below are some examples of photographers capturing water being cast off in a logarithmic spiral: spiral from here photo by Arvin Rahimzadeh photo by Cody Slinger photo by Naveen Shunmuganathan via thisiscolossal  and flickr Photographers also have captured paint, milk, coffee, and other liquids demonstrating this phenomenon. See their incredible photographs below. photo by Manon Wethly   via thisiscolossal  and junkculture photos and video by Fabian Oefner See more photos on  thisiscolossal

Half and Half

With recent technology and engineering, artists are able to show the world a different perspective on everyday complex objects. As a deli sandwich would look when sliced in half, these photos show the interwoven or stacked components of the object.  DSLR Camera AF-S Nikkor 14-24mm Nikon D3 As much as it pains me to see such an expensive piece of equipment rendered useless, it is as fascinating as seeing beneath the skin of a human body .  Leica Lens Leica Tri-Elmar-M 28-35-50mm Leica Tri-Elmar-M 28-35-50mm Leica 50mm f/1.4 Summilux M ASPH via tokyobling  and  demilked Golf Balls These images were taken by photographer James Friedman  as part of his series " Interior Design ." "Curiosity led me to cut my collection of golf balls in half to see what the cores looked like. To my surprise, what I found inside inspired me to consider that I could discover, in the unlikeliest of places, elegant formal qualities and surprising meta

Friday Flower Shoot

Image
About a week ago, I ran a 5k race with a bunch of girl friends and at the finish line, volunteers gave out water, fruit, ice cold towels, and a flower to each runner. Getting a flower after a run was a first for me! I kept it in a wine bottle vase for a few days until it started to dry out. Before it withered away completely, I took some photos. As you scroll down, you can see how I picked off a few petals at a time until there were none left on the stem. The petals went to good use though: they are sitting in a potpourri basket in one of our bathrooms. :-) some petals fell over. they were shy. with the  final arrangement www.amyhefterphotography.com
