After many iterations and plenty of work, the blog is ready to go! If you’re reading this, thank you and congrats! This is post number one of hopefully many, many, many more to come. I’m excited to share my photos, thoughts, experiences, and more with you all and hopefully you’ll enjoy getting to know me as we go.\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Now, how to kick things off properly? Let’s take a look at my favorite photos from the past few years as we look forward to favorites yet to come! So, without further delay, I bring you photo number 10<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

\"um...high
\nSt Patrick’s Cathedral, New York<\/p>\n

Majestic, isn’t it? You’re looking at the nave of St Patrick’s Cathedral in Manhattan. This is one of many favorite photos that came out of my first trip to New York, two years ago. From a photo-nerd perspective, this was a truly fascinating shot in that it was hand-held, high-iso, and manages to retain remarkably high dynamic range. But you don’t need the nerdy info to appreciate the awe of this place. There’s an intriguing mix of solemn darkness with bright, colorful light wherever you stand. You can’t help but be silent as you try to take it all in – or at least, that’s how I felt! I’m told that the whole thing is made from brick and covered in marble. Crazy. It was completed in 1878, making it truly Civil War era architecture. What a contrast to Rockefeller Center, just across the street!<\/p>\n

Alrighty folks, that’s it from me for now – but stay tuned for more countdown!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
