A Child Of Atom

12 of 12 time boys and girls! Gather round! 12 of 12 is a project started by Chad Darnell, you can see all of the participants here. 12 photos on the 12th of each month to document the day. Let's begin!

Breakfast! I actually had a lot of things on the agenda today, so I got out of bed with Kid Flash. He was headed to school and I was off to wander the city.

First stop was Kinkos to pick up a print I had made for the theatre, across the street is this little flea market/antiques fair so I stopped by there as well. I can't resist such places.

At the theatre I have to drop off the prop I just picked up and repair the giant scissors that an actor broke during the week. Here's a glimpse at my set. This is how I spent last week, loading ths in and making it pretty.

Giant scissors all repaired and replaced in the props area with the other oversized props I created for this show. I actually got stuck backstage because as I was working on the scissors the house opened and there was audience in place. I had to stay there for the whole show. Luckily it's only about 40 minutes.

Lunch! Not the most appetizing looking in this photo, but it was pretty tasty.

My subway shot this month, going down from Canal street into the Q/W/N stop. I just love all the crazy angles in the photo.

Next stop was the hinterlands of Brooklyn. I wanted to visit the LDS Family Research branch library to see if they could help me with my genealogical research. They turned out to be spectacularly unhelpful. There was an enormous language barrier with the librarian, and the amount of material that was at the library was actually quite small. In the end I decided that since they would be borrowing everything from the main library at Provo anyway I could just do the research online and if I need to physically see anything I can get them to borrow it and go back.

A shot from out in Brooklyn. I just loved the juxtaposition of text and visual in this shot.

Spring has sprung for sure now! On the way home I stopped by a director's apt. to pick up a script that I'll be designing in July. My first off-Broadway credit in a while. Right outside his apartment were dozens of these tiny purple flowers, they were so pretty!

After that I swung through Central Park to drop off a few geocoins that have been in my bag for far too long at a geocache that I like near this area. The park is so pretty in the spring!

My dinner before...

And after. Our friend WJ came by to eat with us and to discuss the comic book project that we are all working on together. SUCH a good meal! And there you have it. I was all over the city today, and actually ended up with 17 shots that I had to edit down to my faves, a first for me! I'm usually struggling with the last shot or two before posting. See you next month!
