Hurricane Sandy shut down and moved everything around me including the docked boats AND the docks near the Tappan Zee Bridge in Tarrytown, New York. The waters came up river so high and fast that the vessels self-launched ending up in the baseball fields north of their winter docks. The docks themselves buckled and others sunk completely.

Our entire area is suffering with no power, little water, and no transporation. Luckily, there was no serious damage at four of the five wildlife parks where I work. The New York Aquarium is under water, though, having taken the crush of the storm at Coney Island. I hope for the best for them. I go to shoot there tomorrow.
