Is The LoftNinja The Calder of the Web;
Or Is He The New Andy Warhol?

I just took a little busman's tour around the Big Apple. I didn't even have to leave Bethlehem, PA. iustiNYC Real Estate is one of the shiniest stars in the blogosphere. There's nothing that this blog lacks!  TheLoftNija (a NYC real estate agent)  has been my favorite urban photographer for over a year. His visual repertoire ranges from sexy, wide-angle loft interiors to gritty blighted structures that come alive as art forms. He translates the proportion and geometrics of cable and steel to stunning beauty in Calder-esque fashion. His maps are multi-colored eye candy drifting in the twilight background.

I confess that I have always disliked dark background web sites with reverse type, but The LoftNija makes me love it here! He pulls it off brilliantly, with a grey sans serif type and earth tone links and headlines that offer easy reading even for middle age eyes.

justiNYC weaves photography, video, poetry, and narrative into a winning web surf. Techie wannabes like me love all his tools and links that help us grow. My favorite link is  his arts page , marrying his photography with op art graphics. Makes me want to take out my camera and shoot! I think I'll just do that today. Thanks for the inspiration, Justin!!

9:33 PM Update...just received an e-mail from Justin with more treats from The LoftNinja: Real Estate Blog Pad: Tips and Tools for the Real Estate Agent 2.0 and a neat gallery of panoramas called Space.

We love you too Fran.....
so, you liking some of the new stuff? Keep in touch..who knows, maybe i'll swing over to PA for a foto field trip...and you can show me some of the highlights...

FRAN -- How did I miss this guy up to now? THX for the hint and the link. Looks as though LoftNinja covers Brooklyn (and mostly commercial space), while I cover Manhattan residential lofts.

But I have bookmarked him, and will tell Justin I found him through you. (And I saw your link following a trail through Maureen McCabe of Columbus Best Blog.)
