Wallpaper Wednesday: Midnight Taxi

Simon Abrams August 27, 2014

On the way home late one night after working on presentation materials for a pitch. (I don't remember who we were pitching, or if we won.)

The city becomes serene and peaceful, and there's something about observing it through the scratched, streaked glass of a taxi windows that is romantic, mysterious, ethereal. Or maybe I've just watched too many movies.

Wallpaper Wednesday: Lower Manhattan

Simon Abrams August 14, 2014

This week's wallpaper is late. Sorry about that. It is a cityscape of Lower Manhattan with some rather dramatic clouds. This is the South view from Deutsch's offices in Chelsea.

iPhone, iPad and desktop versions are available, and as always, don't be a jerk.

EDIT: I just realized I uploaded a low-resolution version of this wallpaper for the desktop size - that's been fixed.

Wallpaper Wednesday: Bamboo

Simon Abrams August 6, 2014

I think this is bamboo. I'm not a botanist or arborist or herbologist, or any other -ist that would know what type of plant this is, though. All I know is, it was up on the Highline Park and it provided a really nice textural background for some portraits I was shooting that day. Grab it in iPhone, iPad and Desktop sizes via the links below.

Wallpaper Wednesday: Orbs

Simon Abrams July 31, 2014

Today's wallpaper is an abstract image I shot several years ago, taking advantage of my 50 f/1.4mm lens' pretty bokeh and shallow depth of field.

Sorry it's a little late - I think Squarespace was having some back-end issues.

The arch at Grand Army Plaza

Gateway to Brooklyn

I'm currently using this as my desktop wallpaper, and I thought I'd share. It's a close crop of the inside of the arch at Grand Army Plaza, shot at dusk one evening earlier this year.

Prospect Park Stairs

Simon Abrams October 11, 2011

Prospect Park Stairs

Here’s a serene, soothing image of a set of stairs in the woods in Prospect Park, that’s conveniently sized for your desktop. Where do they lead? I don’t remember, but it sure does look peaceful there.
