Shot By Carlini

04/29/2026

I just rebuilt my photography site from the ground up on Squarespace to showcase the travel shots I’ve taken over the past few years. Most of these were captured on my trusty iPhone—starting with the iPhone 12, then moving up to the 14 Pro Max—and now it’s probably time to upgrade again for even sharper images. It’s still a work in progress—I’m in the middle of migrating hundreds of photos from the old site, but it’s far enough along to share. The domain (shotbycarlini.com) is currently transferring, so for now you can check it out here: https://grape-collie-r2xw.squarespace.com/

The southern facade of the Random House Tower on West 55th Street. I recall the constant jackhammer noise from when it was being built while living just a block away. It’s another nondescript glass box skyscraper, a typical product of Modernist and Internationalist architecture inspired by Mies van der Rohe.

The iconic Roseland Ballroom was replaced a few years ago with a residential building. It’s bittersweet to see such a historic venue go, but change is part of our city’s story.
