Hazy

A nice day but a hazy sky. Some interesting signage and banners for the upcoming auto show, on 23rd Street...

Taxi Street Scene

Parked taxis and the play of light in the late afternoon on 21st Street in Manhattan...

ESB Ladder

A peek at the Empire State Building from 23rd Street...

Whitney

The WHITNEY MUSEUM OF AMERICAN ART, on Madison Avenue at 75th Street, currently has its Biennial 2006 on display. Here we see the top of the PEACE TOWER outside near the museum's entrance.

Old Cemetery Part 3

Here we see headstones standing near trees. Some TREES got too CLOSE?

Old Cemetery Part 2

Headstones stand right next to a nursery school playground. Others stand inside the PLAYGROUND itself.

Old Cemetery Part 1

This cannon serves as a memorial to Revolutionary War General RICHARD MONTGOMERY. Rhinebeck, New York.

Tues & Fri

Red brick = one of my favorite building materials...

T INC.

A street scene near Mott Street, below Houston, in Manhattan...

UnEntrance

An obscured entrance way on Union Avenue in Williamsburg, Brooklyn...

Power and Powerless

This caught my eye for the way the tree limbs had been cutoff and left like stumps to make way for the pole and power lines.

For You

"I wait for you there--like a stone. I wait for you there...alone."

Jersey Light

Back in Jersey City and an interesting composition with a street light...

Clock

On Fifth Avenue, in Manhattan...We have had such beautiful weather lately. What a pleasure!

Under Tracks

Yay! Blogger® started working again...Here's a view from under the elevated train tracks in Brooklyn...

Brooklyn's Broadway

In Williamsburg, Brooklyn...

Dead Rat

Even in New York City, things can get tough for a rat. Take a CLOSER look...

Aftermath

Plenty to clean up after the St. Patrick's Day Parade on Fifth Avenue...Scroll down for more parade-related images

Parade Kids

St. Patrick's Day in New York City = a great time to take a day off from school.

Representin'

The Knights of Columbus from Brooklyn, yo!

Kilt Men

Of course, parade viewers get to see plenty of men in kilts. And, FLAGS

Time to Go

Clock on the Fifth Avenue/53rd Street E/V train subway platform...

UNION AV

You have seen other shots from Union Avenue in Brooklyn but this one from today I like a lot. Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Beware of Dog

A typical stoop in Greenpoint, Brooklyn...

Men's Suits

When I moved here, one of the first things I noticed was the water towers on top of the buildings. Somehow, in all the movies and tv shows about New York City, I never really saw them before. Well, I love them.

Vendetta

Anytime you stop to tie your shoe or adjust your bag, someone lurks nearby--for good or bad or indifferent. Here you can see more of the wall DETAIL.

Not a Bike

You know how I every once in a while come across an unfortunate BIKE chained to a pole? Well, that's what made me take this photo on 23rd Street in Manhattan.

Snow Remains

We got a whole bunch of snow a while ago but little BITS remained. (photos shot Thursday) However, this weekend, when the temperatures hit 70 F, that's all folks...

Pay Phone

Pay phones still exist in New York City, especially near or in subway stations. This station entrance has a little fenced in AREA behind it.

Through a Truck

Stopped at a red light, below Canal Street, and I looked to the left...

Out-the-Window Diptych

One thing about New York City--every where you look, you can find something interesting. Here we see just another street scene in the 20's...

End Begin

The Williamsburg Bridge ends and Manhattan begins...

No Standing

Who wants to stand around anyway, on such a nice day?

Gnome 1

I shot a couple photos of this street scene. Then, things got interesting when an old man walked "onto the set".

Gnome 2

Our man moves to another part of the scene.

Sunny Sunday

Composition below Canal Street

Dirty View

Things getting close and the dirty window does not help--funneling onto the Williamsburg Bridge from the Manhattan side...

Poles

I like thinking this looks as if a banner of clouds flows from the empty flag poles...

Graffiti Entrance

Williamsburg, Brooklyn

Downtown Glamour

A composition with garbage bags, below Houston Street, in Manhattan...

Graffiti Lack

A somewhat surprising lack of graffiti on this frame protecting a Houston Street tree. So, enjoy another graffiti design from BROOKLYN.

Graffiti Phone

Graffiti every where you wanna look around Williamsburg, Brooklyn...Even this whole BUILDING.

Fine Intersection

Delancey Street, Manhattan...
