That time have come, and in today's Piece of Life photo series, we are very exited to list postcards from New York city, if you have been following for a while our photo project, you have already noticed that we have featured postcards from many cities around the world.

New York city has a lot to offer, it's dynamic, calm, strange but let's agree - very interesting for photography and inspiration.

Not to speak more, here are some interesting shoots from New York city, made at the end of 2016 / start 2017.

As we arrived just shortly before the New Year of 2017, at start we had a plan to greet New Year at Times Square, but when heard that some 2 million people are planing to attend, and we should be ready to wait in lanes for at least 16 hours, and taking into consideration that about a year ago we did something similar in Venice at St Marks Square in Italy, we opted to stay at our hotel room, pre-order pizza. Yes, kind of best way to meet the New Year.

Anyhow, our love to barrels started a few years ago, when we had a chance to visit a lovely city for funerals - Bordertown, see: Bordentown - Home For Funerals

There is a chance my mom might have taken me here sometime in the early 1990s, but if so, those memories are long gone. This visit felt completely new, and…

Berlin Brandenburg Airport

In April 2026, I had my first experience with Berlin Brandenburg Airport (BER) while flying the Riga–Berlin–Riga route with airBaltic.
