(May 25) Continuing down Bond St. peeking in on the Gowanus Canal.

(May 25) I was planning on going into Manhattan, but it was already getting dark, and I made the decision to photograph around the Gowanus Canal instead, and I saved $4 which I sadly need.

duck
Seeing animals in Superfund waters frightens me.

toxic waters
I want to chase the duck out of that poisonous water

obama
There’s a lot riding on him now

is he on the other side of the wall?
This always reminds me of Billy for some reason

emptiness
Down 1st. St.

barbed canal
Looking back toward home

the plumber and the water tower

abandoned, but not
I still don’t know what this place is

the end
The early part of this jaunt covers material I’ve photographed before, and this is not the end. Yet.

Time passes more quickly than work comes in. I make a lot more banking trips now.

the other side
This is the Union St. end of this place

mini park
Further down Union St. in Park Slope

woe unto those with no connectivity
The Subway is the original network


I saw Lindsay and Delilah, and Rachel and Greg,…

high-tech lap, low-tech lap
and Sarah and Zack

Meh.

It snowed.

hicksville, long island
And then it snowed again.

dangerous road, period.
I was back in familiar territory.

eight years of being 'home'
Other than the car that’s parked where the lawn used to be,
it looks almost the same as when I lived here.

shoveling the nature out of the way for money
Having grown up in suburbia, it wasn’t until I left it that I realized,
snow shoveling as day labor is a suburban phenomenon.

snow cones
The snow makes the ordinary seem more interesting, more intimate in a way,
by blocking out background.


Meanwhile, underground, the stalactites are the least scary part of a Broadway station
on the G line that looks like it’s going to disintegrate.

F line
It’s hard to get high shots in this city. The trains and bridges provide most of the free ones.

a puppy and his frisbee, in the snow
Speaking of snow, I miss Billy.

I’m pretty much ignoring Christmas this year again. It just reminds me of Billy.

tunnel tracks

bird tracks, people tracks
