King Jagiello

King Jagiello sculpture, Central Park, NYC

"X" marks the spot of King Jagiello in Central Park. For whatever reason, I hadn't looked at this very large bronze monument before. I like when it blends with the trees in silhouette, of course, but, also, the closer shot of the king's defiant gesture. So, why not enjoy both?

Mailbox Tags

graffiti tags on mailbox


Even on dreary days, one can always find something that catches the eye. Here some graffiti tags liven up a paint-peeled, rain-streaked mailbox.

"Where is the graffiti stamp?", I ask. Well, perhaps the government doesn't want to condone "crime" in that way? Hmmm, they give enough stamps to presidents and other politicians, don't they? ;]

Typical Situation

Rainy Intersection with reflection of power line


It's a typical situation in these typical times
Too many choices

It all comes down to nothing
Six senses feeling five around a sense of self
Four seasons turn on and turn off
I can see three corners from this corner
Two's a perfect number
But one, well...


[all apologies to Dave Matthews Band, TYPICAL SITUATION]
