Drop me a line

Hi all – scroll down for general blog – photos, notes, rants, and miscellaneous finds (you really, really, need to watch the Muppets video posted Aug 26th). Drop me a line and let me know what you think, or if you are interested in a piece. Or you can visit another Sadie Rosenthal, or another. Please note that the pieces located on these pages are highlights.

And for you true Fraggle freaks (I love you one and all), here’s a favorite Cantus clip (he shows up about 3 min in if you’re impatient and want to scroll ahead…) –

New Pics – SOHO

Quote of the day “Singing opera made me good at painting.” – Homer Simpson

Out wandering today, mostly in SOHO, a bit in the Village – first day of snow, and pretty cold for much of it (seemed to get warmer as the day went on…).

Fell asleep last night watching Zeek sleep (there are new pics of him too in Flickr for those of you who just need more cat pictures). Is there anything better than watching a cat sleep? Moving from light sleep to deep he gives one long exhale then doesn’t breathe in for a long time. His paws start to twitch – I always wonder what he’s chasing – what is he trying to destroy, the little devil? His ears twitch – chasing dream birds? dream mice? dream nth dimensional cat toys (those things he chases when awake that we mere humans can’t see).

Construction

These shots are from a day of wanderings, Prosepect Heights, Prospect Park, elsewhere in Brooklyn, and Manhattan.

I don’t usually shoot at night – I’m just not usually carrying a camera, but with it getting darker earlier (I guess we really are in late fall) – it was fun to play around a bit.

Traffic cat

Don’t ask me what this cat was doing hanging out watching traffic, but isn’t he great?!?

I walked out of my apartment in the morning and went to cross the street, he was just relaxing and watching the world go by.

Can’t imagine how he ended up there, but he seems pretty happy about it…

There are 26 shots in this set – just daily wanderings.

Hamsa

Saw this beautiful hamsa on the rearview miror of a car, with the windshield reflecting the building across the street.

Didn’t know if I could get the shot or not, but… 🙂 There are about 40 shots in this set.
