The winter city in pictures



We had and as it seems continue to have  a rough and relentless winter this year. There have been too many bitterly cold nights and days but I still find some lovely moments to capture as I snap pictures of the city during it's deep winter sleep. It is time to make another post which speaks only in pictures, since I have been taking so many more pictures in the city lately. I wanted to share some of the moments I've been lucky to capture while walking to and from work in lower Manhattan and Soho. I wish I had a better camera to fully give justice to what my eyes see, but I make due with the little iPhone. The colors, shades and horizons of the city are mesmerizing at times. There is much to see at any hour of the day but it is most intriguing in the early hours between 6-7.30am

Enjoy :)

    Φωτογραφίες ευρηματικές αποκαλυπτικές.Ο εικαστικός πτερούλης.Μη ξαναφήσεις μετάφραση στον αναλφάβητο

Diaspora Diaries Vol. 2 A look back in time.

Image
This past August, I was preparing to leave for my annual trip to Athens. It's a trip I plan, anticipate, and long for all year. Yet again as I packed my suitcases and planned my travels, I was reminded of the fact that I too, like many of my fellow Greek friends am part of a modern diaspora. " I'm not quite Greek, and not fully American." We have chosen or were forced to leave. We could have stayed, we weren't escaping war, or famine, or relentless poverty, yet we took a risk and we traveled. We left our homes, our families, our friends. We detached from the comfortable and familiar and journeyed to places that would provide a more stable future, and a different if not always a better life. We went to where the opportunities were, and in most cases with no clear vision of our future. I left because It's something I've always done, I've lived my whole life between Greece and America.    My existence has been about living in two worlds, with tw

Crossing the threshold into the New Year, I wanted to share more stories of some young, talented, and recently transplanted Greeks living, creating and thriving in New York. We all have a reason for being here, and we all have come from different backgrounds and situations. Some left because they had no choice,  some left to study and never went back, some left because their lives had come to a standstill in Greece, because of the financial crisis and they desperately needed a new vision.  We are here,  we've moved from our homes,  our comfort zone our familiar and our settled lives, and made new homes from the beginning. For those thinking that New York is the land of opportunity... well for some it may be for many not so much and its been a strange trip for all of us. We moved to this crazy glorious city, all of us have created a new chapter and a life here. This is our story. I will certainly start with mine soon as many don't know how I first came to New York in the fir

It's My Pleasure-- a declaration of mutual understanding.

You want a piece of me but not all of me You say you cum on the sheets at the sight of me but can't you see? You ain't really lookin.  You say your hard for me and wanna lick these  but you're oblivious to the fact that   this part of me  of me is a fantasy and your blind ass can't see the reality cause you lookin through me, not at me  at some version of your teenage wet dreams.  Can't you see that I'm broken and swollen?   Not from your hotness but from what I lack less.... But I strive... to survive  You don't stress, It's like Chess.  I'm like a game to you, a pawn on a board that you move when it strikes you but big daddy, it's not about winning or losing but how you play the game.  C'mon player it's like taking layer upon layer off... of our souls, and that's where you'll find the gold. Or so I'm told.  Don't be so bold as to think you're unique in your pursuit of the u
