I'm not sure how it happened but another summer has gone. My thanks to all of my great clients (old and new) for all of the projects that I shot over the summer - I look forward to shooting for you again this fall!
Here is a view of the September 11th Memorial LIghts as seen near my studio shot two weeks ago
Things are often not as they seem. The "A" square and the "B" square on this image are exactly the same color. Yes, they are. Go HERE to see the image with proof and more info. This is a good thing for my clients to keep in mind when looking at images...

I will be away from May 30th to June 21st. I will have limited access to e-mail while away but will check e-mail and voice mail as often as I can. If you would like to schedule any projects for late June or early July please e-mail me with the details and I will respond as quickly as I can.
Thanks,
James Shanks
Here is a recent job I did for the NYC Google Office. It's the view from their Chelsea offices looking North towards Mid-Town and shows almost a 180 degree field of view including the Hudson River. The image was created by stitching together twelve 13 megapixel images - the final image file size is over half a Gig and will be printed 8 feet high by 30 feet long. You can see a larger version of this image HERE.
I was recently in Washington D. C. and had a chance to visit the National Museum of the American Indian. I think the museum is well done and is a very interesting structure.
The museum opened in September 2004 and was designed by Douglas Cardinal.
