As Tina has already posted, no Dalai Lama images just yet, however here's 
some images from the brief but humbling experience.

Sorry to Tina and Emanuel for not getting a chance to say goodbye, I was not 
about to wake anyone at 5am. Oh wait, I woke Kyle and we did one more 
Waldorf robe bed jump. Or maybe we did not. Or did we?

So a brief story of the images...

I kid you not I was in NYC for 10 minutes and we were in a liquor store 
sampling Laphroaig Single Malt. 25yr Laphroaig was a reasonable $500 a 
bottle. Watch out for Scots wearing skirts, that's all I'm saying. Emanuel 
is having the bottle autographed in the first image.

Mirror image was just outside the DL's hotel suite. I thought I had everyone 
in the shot except I see Phong is hidden.

Kyle and I attempted some serious iPhone stacking, though clearly no one 
else was cool enough to have one so this shot is a bit sad. If we had said 
"35/1.4 stacking", there would have been 10 or so on the table I'm sure!

I tried some more "M8 and 28, and shoot without aiming" images.

I spent the past 2 weekends in NYC, while I'm glad to be home, I'm going to 
miss the City of Blinding Lights.
