Just in time for the heat of summer 2013 my friend started dope tank top company. If you like what you see on these photos or if you just happen to live in Williamsburg/Bushwick – go ahead and support my friend by ordering some of these unique designs from The Tanks I Get!

I’m running the NYC Marathon this November and also raising money for a good cause. I am raising money for The YAI Network, organization that makes people affected by developmental and learning disabilities lives a little bit easier. I would appreciate if you would help me out by making a donation. The goal is to raise at least $3,000 over the next few weeks. More info on a special website: http://runningforcause.com

My transport of choice in NYC is definitely a road bike. When you cycle on the streets you see city and it’s habitants in a very different point of view. Let me share with you some photos I took last year – NYC through the eyes of a road bike.

Somewhere in Harlem:

Midtown:

125 and Broadway:

The biggest hazard for the bicyclists in the New York City – pedestrians and especially tourists:

My favourite obstacle – guys that jump on the road from behind of the parked car.

Alright, trucks are not very friendly too. Wear helmets.

And these are bit different. These photos were taken with an iPhone in automatic timelapse mode. In two days I did few thousand of photos and 30 of them turned out pretty well.

Not far from the port of Tallinn, Estonia there is an old flour warehouse that was abandoned for decades until recent years – now it’s a museum of old and eclectic cars, bikes, military vehicles and some other stuff from the Soviet era. I’m not a big fan of museums, but I’m a fan of everything that has wheels and engine, so I just could not walk away without taking some photos.

My wifey wanted to try herself in a new amplua – as a bodypaint artist. Some photos from her first experience. What do you think?

Thanks to our friend Diana for being a great model.

Rest of the set can be found on my flickr account.

Here is my tiny collection of hyperrealistic Tone Mapped HDR photos of a New York City also known as Gotham, the city that never sleeps. These were done couple of years ago when I just bought my first DSLR camera. Back in that days HDR(High Dynamic Range) photography wasn’t that popular as it is now – it was something that looked cool because it was unusual and I kinda liked it.

Almost all of these photos were shot with three to six different exposures that were later combined into one image. More then half of them were shot handheld, without a tripod – this is why some of them a bit blurry. Why no tripod? I’m too lazy to carry it around with me.

Same day, same place – Times Square:

And here are the rest of the photos:

Was on an annual Mermaid Parade in Coney Island. It is actually have a very few things to do with “mermaids”.. It’s a freak show, art parade, call it whatever you want but don’t take your kids and grand-ma on the next one.

The only Mermaid I saw. She didn’t have a fish-tail, but at least she didn’t look like she is from one of the Uwe Boll’s movies.

Alright, I got it, shavers don’t work underwater.

Gayvatar mermaid from Pandora.
