Rick Edwards Photographer with Vision
Rick Edwards Photographer caught the serene magic of The Tress of life by Peter G. Pereira.
It was taken in Carl Schurz Park on a wintry day!
Peter G. Pereira Trees of Life: Carl Schultz Park
This was part of the installation Trees of Life by Peter G. Pereira.
By this point we solidified our place on Governors Island. 2016 will be our 9th year.
This is the first time we experimented with winter. We realized the show can be put on in any weather.
Our audience watched from their buildings around the Park. The great photographer Rick Edwards took several aweson pictures.( see next blog)
They loved it. An art show, a blizzard, a magic moment!
I think this is my favorite!
The colors just POP!
Mike Stura Saves Cow!!Yes
I want to give a shout out to Mike Stura from Skylands Animal Rescue in Jersey. Yesterday a cow bolted from a slaughterhouse and bounded happily down the street until he was dragged back to die.
Newsflash: An animal has eyes and can see slaughter and with his nose can smell death.
Mike had the balls to get in his car drive to Queens and pick up the animal for his sanctuary.
Blessings Mike.
And since they have just started the non-profit. How about shooting them a couple bucks.

There was a double rainbow when David Bowie Died
On Sunday January 11th in NYC around 1 o'clock in the afternoon a double rainbow was seen in the sky the time David Bowie passed.
Double Rainbows are never seen. Got that?
On Sunday January 11th 2016 there was a greenish hue to the air that afternoon. It had rained so hard weather records were set.
On one side of the sidewalk it was dark and rainey. On the other side it was light and sunny.
That was the time David Bowie died.
I believe in signs.

The Gristedes closes on 86th and 1st. NY Upper East Side
It never was the greatest grocery store but I know it's been there for over 20 years and it was 24hrs. For me that meant I could shop alone at night, take my time and not get worried someone was taking my coveted chicken breast.
It was zen. It was stress free. And the fuzzy sounds of light rock music oozed from the speakers on the ceiling above my head creating my personal yoga retreat.
It is with sadness( mainly for myself ) that this place is closing for good, just like FAO Swartz, like Carnegie Deli and will be knocked down so a real estate developer can shove more people into little cubes in the air and call it luxury living.
Wired For Women Nov. 2015
There is no question in my mind that I have been remiss on my obligations to comment on WIRED MAGAZINE. After all I am their self-appointed watch dog and my job is to report to you my dear readers . Now I'm back and
I HAVE BIG NEWS!
Wired LISTENED.. That's right, you read it right.
In response to my Observation regarding the lack of women represented in their magazine Wired put women in the November Edition 2015. In fact, Serena Williams appeared on the cover and worked as a guest editor!
( I didn't not know that Wired had "Guest Editors". Clearly, I would have been the obvious choice but alas, I am just a lowly blogger with lofty opinions).
In the November edition 2015 Wired introduced a real-life exchange between men and women who have an open discussion on topics like sexual harassment. Really NEAT. Really COOL!
They also had a section on kitchen stuff and gift ideas!!!! (If you want to spend three hour making the perfect coffee you will find the recipe here).
I don't like coffee but there were lots of other interesting products that caught my eye.
But this begs the question....
Kay, are you delusional to think that a major magazine would hear and listen to you?
There is no question in my "delusional" mind that the answer is YES! Here are the facts;
1. Put Woman on cover
2. Added ads for women
3. Added dialogue between men and women.
4. Took out that weird lighting behind featured women
(I think that Wired went a little overboard to prove a point and that's why I still think this is a computer generated magazine so here's a note to you computer.
Dear Wired:
I know that you are scouring the internet to make sure your reputation is in tact and you are reading this so I'd like to point out that you want to alienate your loyal audience base by overkilling the women thing. However, I do feel this was a smart move because you attracted advertisers that would not have ordinarily been interested.
Now we have to work on keeping those advertisers!
Don't forget women are interested in technology they just need it presented in a way that speaks to them.
And finally, in exchange for my very valuable services I do NOT think that you should bill me for a subscription because clearly you do not want to hire me as a consultant.

We gottcha David Hackenberger for Animal Abuse
Go away David! Get some psychiatric help from prison.
And Studios and movie makers please, please please rethink employing people like this or even using live animals in your productions and... if you do use them please commit to taking care of them after they are old and no longer employable.
All the kids will love you for it. Imagine? The animals Disney retires in style. You can even hook us up to a live UCAM so we can watch them live in luxury.
Don't forget the kids who watch the movies- your money base. Don't alienate them. And me.
Please?
