Boston Now..

April 24th, 2008 by tommyvon


runners after the boston marathon
Originally uploaded by tommyvon

No, not a reference to the defunct free daily newspaper, but Boston has woken up finally from winter. Marathon Monday has come and gone already, which is always the unofficial the start of the nice weather season. I managed to get a few shots of the runners after the race.

Also, The Red Sox are back, the Bruins are gone (unfortunately - that was close!) and the Celtics are kicking some serious ass. I was at game one and the (new)Garden hasn’t been that nuts ever. I can’t wait to be there for the NBA finals, which will hopefully be Boston vs The LA Lakers.

Lastly, on an unrelated note, I stumbled upon the D-Nice gallery.   D-nice is a former rapper from the late 80s who was part of the Boogie Down Productions / KRS-one crew.  He’s now a photographer and DJ and has some very interesting shots of New York and Hip Hop legends.  Check it out.

Opening Day!!

It’s that time of year again, finally. Baseball is back, and this year it was at 6am. Thanks to Directv, I missed most of the game however I caught the end of win at the Tokyo Dome. If you haven’t already, check out all the great coverage at boston.com of the Red Sox in Japan. Seems all the players are amped on Japan and the japanese are now in love with the sox. I wonder though, why were the sox in “away” jerseys?

All is right in the world now, the Celtics are close to an NBA championship and the Sox are going to win it all again.

The Ones We Love…

March 20th, 2008 by tommyvon



No this isn’t a photo I took, and it isn’t someone i love (or even know).. But this is from an amazing photo project titled “The Ones We Love“. Dozens of photographers took several shots each of a person who they love and why, which was organized in this collection. Take some time to check them out, all different, most very good!

Haven’t been updating the site in a while, sorry about that! Life has been busy. Probably the busiest winter and most depressing one in a long time (for a multitude of reasons). Anyway.. Heres a photo I took of that eclipse a few weeks ago. Now that the sun is setting at a normal hour (like 7pm) I’ll have a lot more opportunity’s to actually get some good new shots up.

Old dunks sign coming down

January 8th, 2008 by tommyvon

old dunks

Well its finally happening, the Dunkin Donuts on Market St in Brighton is taking the sign down.   According to the franchisee, the sign is beyond repair which is hard to believe.  The 3rd ever Dunks is going to have to do with a “new sign” says owners.   You know its going to be some giant dunks logo that looks the same as any other dunks, it might as well be in upstate NY.   Story on Boston.com and WBZ.  Photo courtesy of flickr user kbonami.
