Just Saying...

As many of you are aware, I am the photographer for Donna Michelle Franklin  aka DMochelle of DMochelle Fashions Magazine and DMochelle Fashions.  We were invited to an event were DMochelle would walk the Runway and with the understanding I would take pictures of the Fashion Show and not the entire event in question.   The moment I arrive,  I was immediately told I could not take pictures of the fashion show after it was agree too.  I was reminded a few times not to take pictures during the show but could take pictures after the show was over,  smh.  The lesson here, promoters and organizers of this show missed a great opportunity.

Brooklyn Bridge

Brooklyn Bridge was built by John Augustus Roebling over the East River which connects Brooklyn and Lower Manhattan.  It opened on May 24th, 1883 and construction started 1869.

Currently the bridge has 6 lanes but once upon a time, it supported Elevated Train until 1944, and Streetcars until 1950.

The bridge had 2 names,   New York and Brooklyn Bridge and as East  River Bridge, and was officially named Brooklyn Bridge by the city in 1915.
