New Years is going well and I am current on all resolutions so far. But three days is not a banner effort yet. I am enjoying the Tweeting and trying to combine social media with a bit of social conscience. Not every day, but just an awareness. Already, I have stumbled onto a few great resources which will all get shared in time.Here is a connection via childhood friend Eric, now living in Madison. A meager photographer in NYC, Brandon Stanton. I'm not sure if this is his trade or his passion. But after failing while working in the Chicago Stock Market, he refocused efforts into this great photo-blog of slice-of-life New York. He just approaches characters on the street, asks a bit about them and then documents a vivid moment in their life for all to share. Both simple and profound at the same time. I will show a few shots from the last few days over New Year's, but his page really deserves a full look. The pictures also do not relay the small conversations had. Check him out.
