Childhood Dreams & Rats with Wings
I love rooftops, especially in the city. When I was a kid I used to see rooftops in movies (most often set in NY) and think to myself how cool they were, and how my life would be complete if I could just live in an apartment with an accessible rooftop. I accomplished that goal a few years back, and didn't feel that sense of completion I expected at age 13 (maybe i would if it was all mine and I owned the sucka). It didn't disappoint though, and I spent a considerable amount of time up there, sun baking, reading books and being inspired by the sense of calm being so high up brought.


Time to start making that inspiration pay off. Since its winter and I'm only shooting a couple of times a week, I've had lots of time to plan. I went out location scouting today, and found these two spaces...


They may look drab now, but I have plans... One is supposed to come together this friday, but its really very tentative and involves me visiting said location twice per day, every day until the shoot to feed some pigeons. I'm pretty dubious about it actually coming together, but if it does its gonna be fantastic!
