Ode to New York
By Kaela Aalto
Zooming home, George Washington Bridge
The hodgepodge of vintage objects on my desk includes a bee print from a yard sale on Nantucket, a portfolio of unknown portraits, and dying roses in a Goodwill vase.
Circa 2018 when I toured Barnard College for the first time, taken on one of the first disposable cameras I ever had.
Sunsets on the Hudson River, just a block from where I lived at the time.
Every spring the trees in the city erupt into thousands of white blooms, but nowhere is it as magical as it is in the West Village.
