To start the year off right, I went out side to take a few photographs after midnight. The new snow was beautiful. The night sky turned into hot chocolate.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The warmth of the late afternooon light as it rakes across our block on a January afternoon makes me feel hopeful that winter will end.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I envy my daughter's ability to have a great time with a paper bag and a cupcake and a few good friends of course.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Alone and awake at midnight, listening to the mice.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Mei Ling is very brave about wearing her eye patch. Sometimes it is even fun.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A thin line of sunlight comes in the back of the apartment for a few minutes on winter mornings. It briefly slices all the way to the living room.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There are still remnants of the old Park Slope on 5th Avenue.

Mei Ling and I went to the Aquarium. I took several photos of her dutifully standing on the boardwalk for the camera. She was underexposed compared to the water. I used the on-camera flash to fill in her face as we started to chase each other.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

At home, wrapping a present.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The light coming down into the subway felt symbolic. Although I go through this station almost everyday, I almost never am there in the early afternoon when the light comes down the stairwell illuminating regions I expct to be dark.
