Etsy Treasury List... Woodland Wonderland

In the past couple of weeks, I have been fortunate enough to have fellow Etsy members feature my photographs in their Treasury Lists. It's so fascinating to look through the lists of both friends and strangers to see what treasures they have found. To pay it forward, I have put together my own list, Woodland Wonderland. Please check it out- artwork, clothing, jewelry and novelties by some very talented artists and crafters.

Leave the gun, take the cannoli.



Spent a hot day in Little Italy this summer with my family for my mom's birthday. Every weekend on Mulberry St. now looks like the San Gennaro festival. Well, not quite... but the street is closed and absolutely bursting with people looking at cigar rollers, gelato carts, balloon animal makers and "GTL" t-shirts. As soon as I took out my Holga, my mom goofed on me for acting like a tourist.. until she realized it was "the plastic camera", and then she was cool with it.

If you're looking for a great restaurant in Little Italy, try Il Cortile. Don't even think about not trying the Bruschetta Con Fave e Verdure.

Frankenstein Built My Hot Rod

You never know what you might find in the Target parking lot. Stumbled upon this bad-ass chartreuse hot rod in Mount Kisco.


Vanderbilt Mansion

Took the Holga up to Hyde Park to visit Vanderbilt Mansion.








Love this statue... she looks like she's just waking up.




Guest Photographer! My talented friend, Karen, has made an appearance here before. I really like this photo.

My Plastic Camera: The Etsy Shop!

Finally! I'm excited to announce that the My Plastic Camera Etsy shop is up and running! If you haven't tried Etsy, you must! It's a great way to support artists, craftspeople, and small business owners.

Random Images: A Scooter, Tacky X-mas and a Ghostly Gal

There was a color roll of film in my Holga from October through the beginning of January. One cool thing is that I used the flash for the first time to capture a couple of images at night. See below for more info:


A Ghostly Sight in Sleepy Hollow, NY.... used the flash for the first time here:

Tacky X-mas overload in my neighborhood:
