Wine bar in Cranford, NJ, photographing without flash up very close

Saturday and Sunday, pretty much the same thing.

Looking at thousands of people, taking pictures.

I tell you, people are really starting to watch me here like I’m a crazy person or whatever, all the local store workers and everything. But that’s okay.

So yesterday and today were pretty much the same.

But last night was completely different. A friend of mine, Eric, he bought a liquor store bar borderline of Cranford, NJ and Garwood, in King’s Plaza. It used to be Little Joe’s and the new name is Fusion.

This guy is an expert on all liquors from around the world and wine.

So he’s going to make a wine bar. I helped him work on it from about 9 at night to about 2 in the morning.

Interior decorator pretty much laid out everything that has to be done so a lot of priming, a lot of moving things around. My plan is to put a sign out that says “fine wine, fine art” and have Portraits of New York running on a big screen TV. The best of the best, maybe an eight hour video that goes continuous of cool people in New York City. I’ve had this idea for a long time.

The sports part is that have all the games which is great but it wouldn’t be bad it there were one monitor just showing interesting people of New York City. Beyond interesting, I have to call them very strange, interesting looking people. But anyway that’s what I want to do.

Last night I broke my alcohol fast since I had got to sample of a bunch of wines. I didn’t go crazy, four or five glasses of wine over a five hour period.

Anyway, I will be photographing tomorrow with the new concept of up very close – eight inches away to a foot. I like this new system, without a flash, direct sunlight. Halloween week is coming. It’s going to be great, lots of parties, lots of crazy costumes.

Signing off.
