Hi! Thanks for visiting. I'm an American photographer living in Buenos Aires. These are photos from the blog I kept on my site from 2003 to 2009. I now have redesigned the home page to just show a portfolio of my current work. I also blog at BuenosAiresPhotographer.com where I post my baires snapshots.

 

I'm working to get my Gay Pride pictures from Sunday edited but in the meantime here's a backlog shot.

The Plaza behind 1166

I enjoy the plaza behind 1166 6th Avenue [at 46th street]. It's sheltered from the street, very nicely landscaped and is always filled with people during the day. Apparently it was renovated not so long ago by a firm named Hoffmann Architects. It looks like the made the present plaza more reader friendly [chairs instead of fountains]. City Hall has a website listing such 'privately owned public spaces'. Interestingly, while I was taking pictures one of the building's security goons told me to stop. Enjoy the "public" space but don't expect to excercise your public rights.

Hi. I'm a 33 year-old American currently living in Buenos Aires. Before that I lived in California, Sao Paulo and New York and if you browse through the archives below you can see photos of all those places. Currently I'm posting most of my pictures on BuenosAiresPhotographer.com. I also have an old geocities page with some outdated information but also more photos of Buenos Aires, friends and my 9/11 pictures.
