Reflections, Windows and a View

A window on 22nd Street with some odd reflective surface

reveals all the U-Haul truck waiting to haul someone's stuff .....somewhere......

Such elegant, tall windows on 20th Street.

Looking out of my study window, I see a worker on his way either up or down to/from the roof.

Rather nerve-wracking if you ask me.

A bakery in Chinatown on a Saturday evening.

My main blog is now here

Simple Things

Christina of Soul Aperture is hosting a celebration of simple things.

Go here to join in.

This is not the finest example of a dahlia plant,

but it's rather touching anyway.

Reflections in a door on 21st Street.

 

White clouds seen from a building at Robert Moses beach.

My favorite milk jug bathed in morning light.

Things Seen

Pink tinged clouds after gray upon gray.

Monsters that somehow got into a car.

A little girl waiting for a carriage ride.

And a boy having his portrait drawn.

Mental Indigestion

The difference between the eye and the camera is that the latter is a machine.
We don't get thrown for quite such a loop by reflections in real life since our brain only processes one thing at the time - thank goodness.



On the corner of 8th Avenue and 22nd Street, a pretty awful welfare hotel is being refurbished as the swanky 'Gem'.
Two thoughts: where are the poor denziens of the Allerton being shipped off to?
Is this the right moment to open a new hotel?
Hmm..........
This is a view into the window of the florist where the two bold black cats live.



Not sure what will be in this spacious retail space. We have about a zillion nail parlors and drug stores already.
Nice bright sunny day for photos. The Empire State Building is flying through the air in the upper right.



I like the colors of building materials.



It's lucky one can't think of more than one thing at a time.
Economic down turn.
S.Palin's shopping.
It's enough to make one's head spin.
