Peter Ruprecht Photographs at "Bang on NYC" party

I showed some of my pictures at Bang On Nyc's latest party.  The party was really unique and interesting

It was an Asian themed event with a Japanese rock band (straight out of Japan), Geisha girls, sushi to munch on between 11 - 1, and other surprise acrobatic performances.

They also had an open bar of sake, beer, and liquor. Everything was included with a $20 cover. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to the NY charity "University of the Streets".

Bob Marley Festival Baguat


Bob Marley Festival Baguat
Originally uploaded by www.ruprechtstudios.com

I am still trying to figure out photography site SEO. Search Engine optimization. The reason I am posting this is because this has become the most popular photo on my flickr account. It is continually ranked as the highest viewed photo. It has a similar title to all of the other Bob Marley Festival photos, the same tags, the same desciption, and its not even a picture of Stephen, Julian, Damian or Ky-Mani Marley.

If anyone has any ideas let me know

This was a shot taken just after leaving death valley. The temperature in death vallley was about 126 degrees. Leaving the car for 30 minutes would leave you lightheaded. Walked around for a while and then hit the highway. Somewhere in california or nevada , ran into the crazy abandoned saltmine that looked like a movie scene.
