Has put me in mind of warmer times…
Karaoke on Coney Island. She sang “You Don’t Own Me.” Every woman over 30 in the audience sang along.
The nuns weren’t actually singing in Brooklyn Bridge Park but who could resist?

“Everybody is wrong about everything, just about all the time.” – Chuck Klosterman
“I am not one of those who in expressing opinions confine themselves to facts.” – Mark Twain
I am always extremely impressed with those definitive people who can say with confidence on January 1st that: “this was my best/favorite work of the past year.”
I seem to always feel: “Well, yes, that is true today but how about next month? Or next week? Or tomorrow? I will have changed by then. So, I expect my opinion will as well.”
Pretty wishy-washy, I guess.
Anyhow, a few of my favorite images made in 2016 from my project “Trans_Lucent” as of 1/3/17 at 9:00 am…
Thought I would delve way into the past for this week’s second pass at Ailsa’s Travel Theme – Romance. First attempt is here.
Taken many years ago at one of the early Mermaid Day Parades.

The challenge this week is joy.
I thought this summer shot at Coney fit the bill…

All Borough walks are concluded for 2013. I thought I would throw together a gallery of the 10 walks. One shot of the photographer and one shot that represented something about the Borough or walk – to me.
These surely do not qualify as pictures for an exhibit. These are tokens as much for my memories as for any other reason. The only borough not represented is Staten Island…but hey, they are used to being an afterthought! So, as always, click on any picture in the gallery to jump to full size.
“…share a photograph with a prominent color (or assortment of colors) that reveals more about you.”
The Weekly Photo Challenge this week is Hue. The quote above is from the directions.
Now, to my mind every photograph especially the ones that the photographer shares with the world “reveals more about you.” However, your mileage may vary.
In any case here are several views o’ hue.
Coney Island
Lower East Side

Ailsa’s Travel Theme this week is Costumes. I think last year’s Mermaid Day Parade fits the bill.
Because of Sandy, the parade lost a lot of its revenue generating potential over the winter and has started a Kickstarter campaign to keep it afloat this year. Feel free to give them a buck or two here.
