Previous | Next :: Novelist in Bar : West Side Tavern 23rd St & 9th Av : NYC | November 14, 2008, 2:08 am

So we had finished working...... sort of finished the entire evening........ It was midnight already........ then in a surprise move I decided to roll to the new(ish) bar ....... The West Side Tavern..... over the road on 23rd St with Marc ......... Its a bit of a grim place reminding me of some of those places primarily populated by Australians in West London ........ and the bar man he seemed to think I should ask his permission to bring cameras in the place wow that really bugged me...... people who don't like having their photograph made well thats one thing...... they are not always my favorite people...... but people who even mind you making photographs of other people...... I can't help it I just don't like them ......... I shot this picture of Michelle then I spoke to her cos if you do it the other way round then there is no picture...... I normally work like that ..... when I spoke to her she was very cool she had no problem being in a photograph....... even seemed pleased........ she is writing a novel....... likes to write in bars if she gets writers block at home....... artists need the odd trip to the bar........ thats my excuse and Im sticking to it..........!
