Just the First Post

New York City is full of people and places that affect me every day. They're a beautiful and awful diverse bunch of people, and I am inspired to memorialize my encounters with them in new photo blogs all the dang time. Unfortunately, I have neither the time or the motivation to choose a topic and really give it the treatment it deserves. What I've realized, though, is that it's the inspiration that really needs to be documented. So from here on out, whenever I see someone or something that makes me think, "The Internet should probably have a photo blog about that!" then I am going to post it here on New Photo Blog Idea, along with a photo of the person, the sign, the family, the building, or whatever it was that gave me that little sparkle of love or mockery. It's just the first post, but if it weren't, would you really read them all?

Women Who Have Arguments I Would Never Want to Win

This classy broad (the one in the white, with the hat) was ahead of me in line at the Rite-Aid store, attempting to haggle with the clerk over the price of a shopping basket full of store-brand enemas. She thought they should be 10¢ cheaper than he thought. He won, I think.

Rude passengers on NYC Transit

The old man pushed his way in front of me in the line to get onto this bus. By striking me with the violin case he's holding in his lap. I hated him.

New York City is full of people and places that affect me every day. They're beautiful and awful incredibly diverse, and they inspire me to pay tribute to them by thinking about creating new photo blogs about them all the dang time. Unfortunately, I don't really have the time or the motivation to choose a topic and really give it the treatment it deserves, but it's the inspiration that really needs to be documented. So from here on out, if ever I see someone or something that makes me think, "The Internet should probably have a photo blog about that!" then I am going to post it here at New Photo Blog Idea along with a photo of the person, the sign, the family, the building, or whatever it was that gave me that little sparkle of love or mockery.
