#FlashbackFriday: I had a blast attending and photo shooting this year's "City Of Cohoes Presents: Springfest Block Party" held at Spindles On Remsen Wine Bar in Cohoes, NY last Saturday, May 20,2017. This fun event featured vendors, food & drinks, and live music from "Mike McCann" and "Super 400"! It was the first time that "Super 400" made their performance debut for any type of event in the City of Cohoes!! They were awesome live, playing both original and cover tunes that had people dancing in the street!! You can view more photos from this event on my Facebook fan page at "ALM Fine Art And Photography", on my Flickr page at "almartandphotography", and even in next week's edition of @thespot518 "TheSpot518" newsweekly!! Happy Friday and Happy Memorial Day weekend!! Stay tuned to my website and social media pages to see what I'm doing in the Upstate NY arts and Music scene!! #FlashbackFriday, #fbf, #CityOfCohoesPresentsSpringfestBlockParty, #SpindlesOnRensenWineBar, #CohoesNY, #CityofCohoesNY, #SaturdayMay202017, #Spring2017, #May2017, #BlockParty, #CommunityEvent, #FirstTimePerformingInCityofCohoesNY, #Super400, #KennyHohman, #LoriFriday, #JoeDaley, #RoccoMazzarello, #AdirondackSoundSystems, #ConcertPhotography, #EventPhotography, #LocalBand, #LocalMusic, #LocalMusicians, #RockTrioGroup, #DigitalPhotography2017, #DigitalPhotography, #IPadProPhotography2017, #IPadPro, #ALMFineArtAndPhotography, #TheSpot518, @thespot518 , #AnnualEvent, #SpindlesOnRemsen, #UpstateNYBand, #MusicPatrons, #MusicFans, (at Spindles on Remsen)

#HappyNationalSelfieDay and Happy #FirstDayofSummer Instagram and social media followers!! Last Friday (6/16/17), I met Bobby Whitlock (keyboardist and vocalist of Eric Clapton's band, "Derek and the Dominos") and his wife, Co Co Carmel, at The Egg Performing Arts Center in Albany, NY!! It was interesting and entertaining to hear Whitlock's stories about his and Carmel's personal and musical lives, as well as listening to them perform both their original songs and Whitlock's songs that he wrote as a member of "Derek And The Dominos"!! They were very nice and pleasant to meet and hear perform in person! Thank you again to my friend, George Fazio @bluesprinting, for providing me an opportunity to attend this fun performance last week!! It was an honor to be able to meet these amazing performers!! Happy Wednesday!!

As part of today's morning activity (5/18/17), I stopped by the Alacrity Frame Workshop in Albany, NY, to show a new mentor and my client my exhibition show that's still currently on view inside the gallery!! I want to give a special thank you to my friends that took the time to support me during my artist opening and for checking out "Modesti's Photo Folk Art Experience", at Alacrity Frame Workshop, as well as supporting me during my second artist opening that occurred this past Saturday at the River Street Beat Shop in Troy, NY, "Modesti's Concert Photo Experience". I appreciate your support! Thank you to Brian Shea and Jimmy & Liam Barrett for allowing me the opportunity to showcase my art in your locations!! The open mike jam that I was supposed to have during my concert photography show will be scheduled to another date, once the weather cooperates with us!! If you didn't have an opportunity to attend the First Friday Albany a few weeks ago to see my show, don't forget that "Modesti's Photo Folk Art Experience" WILL be on view until Wednesday, May 31, 2017!! Stop by the Frame Shop during their open hours to check out my show and purchase some cool art!! Stay tuned to "ALM Fine Art And Photography" on Facebook or my artist website to stay up to date with where I'll be having my future exhibition shows or if you have any inquiries about my art/photography!! Thank you!!

While enjoying my walk through Riverfront Park in Troy, NY, after attending my piano lesson on this beautiful Spring Tuesday, I spotted a Memorial flower that landed on the stones nearby a Veteran's Memorial. I stopped over to pick up the flower and placed it back on the Memorial wreath before I went home!! Happy #TransformationTuesday!! Take the time to enjoy Spring now that the nice weather has finally arrived and is here (hopefully) to stay. #TransformationTuesday, #EnjoyTroy, #TroyNY, #TuesdayMay162017, #RiverfrontParkTroyNY, #RiverfrontPark, #UpstateNY, #MemorialFlower, #StoneAndGrassWalkway, #VeteransMemorialatTroyRiverfrontPark, #ALMFineArtAndPhotography, #TheSpot518, #Spring2017, #May2017, #FlowerPhotography, #AlbanyTimesUnion, @thespot518 , @albanytimesunion , #IPhonePhotography, #IPhone7Camera, #IPhone7, #DigitalPhotography2017, #DigitalPhotography, #NaturePhotography, #UpstateNYPhotographer, #ArtificialFlower, #RedFlower, @enjoytroyny #EnjoyTroyNY, (at Troy, New York)

#MotivationTuesday: "Leave the big door open, Everyone will come around." Found this inspiring quote along the bathroom wall of the Twisted Vine Wine & Tap in Delmar, NY this past Friday evening while I attended my friends' duo performance and ate dinner with close friends..! Taking the time now to reflect on the end of my past week,weekend, and figuring out what I need to focus on as my main priorities for my new week & future. Based on my interpretation of this quote, if the door is open and welcome to opportunity & possibilities, opportunities (whether it be for opportunities within the arts/photography/music, and other), even possibly finding "the one", or even meeting other significant friends & other life & artistic mentors will be welcomed into my life or even the lives of other individuals at the right place at the right time?!?! What is your interpretation of this message? What does it mean to you?!?! I found this message to be interesting, inspiring, and food for my own thoughts!! #MotivationalTuesday, #NowTransformationTuesday, #TransformationTuesday, #TwistedVineWineAndTap, #DelmarNY, #FridayFebruary102017, #Winter2017, #DigitalPhotography2017, #CanonRebelSL1, #DigitalSLRCamera, #MotivationalQuote, #Quotes, #HandwrittenQuote, #BathroomWall, #NowTuesdayFebruary142017, #ALMFineArtAndPhotography, #TheSpot518, #MiscPhotography, #QuotePhotography, #FoodForThought, #FoodForMyOwnThoughts, #BelatedMotivationalMonday, #LeavethebigdooropenEveryonewillcomearound, #WavyQuote, #InterestingQuote, #WallArt, #WallDecor, #WallText, (at Twisted Vine Wine & Tap)
