Another NYC landmark, but this time bahbahra wanted to be in shot and the focus of attention of course
Thank you for taking the time to visit. I really appreciate all your comments, and welcome any critique as I am learning the art of photography, and having a blast with it
Was away for a while but finally back
Other shots are posted on my flickr account http://www.flickr.com/photos/tattoodjay/
IF you see yourself in any of my people on the street shots and want it to be removed please contact me and I will remove it straight away
Ha - that's great. I like how he's vying for the camera. This is a fun and unique shot.

Nice use of Bahbahra to showcase the bridge. :) Would have prefered it without the vignetting though :)

@Nicholas: Thanks for the critique, I got carried away with vignetting at one stage but am controlling myself now, this one was from when I was in the vignetting phase LOL
nice and smart character you've created in your shots to express better your idea,

Bahbahra wants to be famous… Bahbahra wants to be star…
This is a nice shot. Specially with this DoF.

Hey that's a different perspective... You have a cute little toy there...
31 Oct 2008 7:09am
that animal sure gets around. Great focus on this shot. Baaarilliant

I like the interesting perspective, with Bahbahra in the foreground: it drives the eye towards the arch

Hi ,
I love this kind of shot but i find that the bridge is too on the right
31 Oct 2008 9:57am
Wonderful lighting, and a great DoF, cool focal point!
31 Oct 2008 10:46am
Nice shot. Great colors and interesting frame. Bahbahra seems to have fun sightseeing.
31 Oct 2008 10:51am
Hahaaaa! Too cute! Really like this. It is sweet and amusing.

Hope he doesn't go for a bungee jump without a rope! :)) It's a great picture with the bridge in the background!

You crack me up with these shots of Bahbahra! how many strange looks did you get while she was posing? What fun!
31 Oct 2008 12:42pm
Thanks everyone for the comments, I have many more shots of Bahbahra so you may well get sick of seeing her before too long lOL

Having just recently been introduced to your work, this is the first time I have met bahbahra - love the name - reminds me of The Beach Boys, and this is a special shot - made me chuckle. You have yourself a great weekend.

He looks a bit uncomfortable but it would be better if he was looking at the camera :-)
31 Oct 2008 1:47pm
Quite right, what's a bit of architecture compared to such cuddly cuteness. Neat shot
31 Oct 2008 2:56pm
He does get around dosen't he. Cute shot.
31 Oct 2008 4:28pm
Ha ha, thats a unique take on the bridge shot, nice one.
31 Oct 2008 6:15pm
Ha - stuffed pink animal looks like it's some kind of superhero waiting to fly up into the sky.
31 Oct 2008 6:52pm
LOL that's a good one. interesting use of illusion and scale, DOF and humour at the same time. have a good weekend

@João Mourão: I can safely report she didnt jump, and is safely resting in my backpack
Looks like its balanced on a very precarious ledge there, careful!!
31 Oct 2008 9:07pm
@Will Williams: luckily Bahbahra has a magnetic personality, well she has a few magnets and thats how she stays there quite safely
Splendid concept JJ and well done.
31 Oct 2008 10:09pm
Sweet Bahbahra in focus of attention, a nice idea and well done, JJ... also the bridge is beautifully captured with the blurred effect!
31 Oct 2008 10:30pm
'Placement' items like this are an absolute hoot and this one is a real treat . . it has me wondering if you put that flag up there, too ?!
31 Oct 2008 10:33pm
This concept is a good idea. Makes me think to the french film "Le fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain" de JP Jeunet (5 oscars in 2002) where there is a story of dwarfs of garden (hope it's the good words...), who is taken in photo all around the world. Do you know it ?
31 Oct 2008 11:12pm
@Evelyne Dubos: I think I have heard of that movie, but dont think I ever saw it
Great idea for the composition of this picture and for the recurrent apparition of Bahbahra in your photoblog.
31 Oct 2008 11:49pm
Is Bahbahra following you all the time? I know a guy who is taking pictures of his "mascot" in different places, at restaurants, when he is travelling... Very cool picture.

This is just simply wow!! The title is so fitting, so much fun!

Great shot! Bahbahra is adorable! And the Brooklyn Bridge is my favourite bridge in the world! =)
