Add your voice against photography restrictions in NYC

Sign this petition.

NYC is once again looking to restrict First Amendment guaranteed rights of photography in public spaces. This is a very bad precedent if it is to happen, and also a severe attack on freedoms for all of us. It will even impact amateur and casual photographers.

For details on the proposed rules, see here.

Only 3 days left to sign the petition. Thanks to Lenny at DC / MidAtlantic Artnews for posting this.

Rising from the cave...

...Not a real cave, but I've neglected to update the blog and the page for quite a while. I am still in Baltimore, working part time on my photography and some non-profit consulting work, and also at Patrick's, www.patricksofpratt.com, as a bartender.

Some recent news related to my photography:
-I've shot a few more weddings this year, I'll post links soon for the public to see.
-I am now a member of the Sowebo Arts collective, here in Sowebo (Southwest Baltimore), my new neighborhood.
-I should have a showing coming up in September at a local restaurant, and one or two others in the works.
-I'll soon be selling smaller prints on Ebay, keep an eye out for more info.
-I did my first "Fair" this year, sharing a booth with my brother and his Bonsai work at the Sowebohemian Arts Festival here in Baltimore.

That's all for now. More to come soon. I hope your summers are treating you well.

Matt
