Childhood Memories

childhood memories

bubble gum, hop-scotch, marbles-

a simpler time

The Brook

melodious brook

liven up winter air, moss

still hangs at its edge

Catching Raindrops

• 

As winter gray rules the sky, a young family walks quickly down the sidewalk, Anxious to retreat from looming rain. First drops make contact – mom’s footsteps quicken. Facinated by the fat splat to his forehead the toddler breaks the pace.

arms outstretched

palms skyward,
a new distraction

catching raindrops –
the razzle dazzle
of it all!

Unhinged

• 

a cocoon unhinged
twirls like ashes in the wind
can it stay intact?

Off the Pier

Autumn nestles amidst winter. They’re working it out.

Thursday Doors Year End Recap

The Yacht Club inManhattan

In Park slope, Brooklyn

St Patrick’s Cathedral in Manhattan

Brooklyn Public Library in Cadman Plaza Brooklyn

I was in Chinatown yesterday when I saw this building. I stopped, backed up and got this shot.

well, digging through my stash of doors I found this gem for Norm’s Thursday Doors this week. To be honest, I don’t remember where I took this one. I think it was in Manhattan on the lower east side. But, I am loving it! Check out the window flower box on the ledge above, cute, right!

 

These were taken in the Grand Army Plaza area of Brooklyn yesterday while I was on the hunt for street murals. The one above is of a synogue and the other two are apartment building entrances.

 

 

The Mantauk Club in Park Slope Brooklyn

A private school downtown Brooklyn


The view from the back of the is house is off the Promonade and a spectacular close up view of Manhattan

Photos taken in Skagway Alaska. The number on this building is not necessarily the street address but rather, the year it was built. This place is amazing!!
