(Apr 2) Starting over again. New location. Same boxes since Brooklyn. The boxes and I are both worn out.

a reflection
I am trying to settle in

is it a sign?
Another duckie

get off the lawn too!
Perhaps people wouldn’t dump if the town ever picked up yard waste.

transmissions
There’s a lot of towers

for the umpteenth time...
And a lot of odd signage

i thought it would be a better view
This didn’t turn out like I’d expected

view
So yeah.

day moon
Bonus Moon!

night moon
The moon moves a lot too, I guess.

some of us are lost
But at least it has an orbit.

(Feb 7) To the city and back.

it is blue
We meet again, old friend.

electric go bye bye
Hicksville. No, really.

moon over hicksville
It appears to be full

on the way to somewhere else
I wait, and watch the cars go by

diesel locomotion
Until it arrives, and I depart.

(Sep 17) I left Port Jefferson for the second time in November 2010. I returned to the same exact location September 15, 2011. Moving is becoming a ceaseless process. Upon my return, it becomes clear quickly that I won’t be staying long either.

antiques, or crap if you prefer
It’s nice to be back in a familiar place. The Spanish part of uptown continues to grow, while “Antique Alley” holds steady.

You did realize Lava Lamp is a brand name, right?

moon may appear smaller on screen than real life
Uptown’s getting a little rough though. One of Pete’s workers was nearly beaten to death in a robbery right near here.

smokestacks
Back downtown, past the power plant

PT Barnum used to own this area
Barnum Ave, firehouse in the distance down the side street.

(Sep 2) The long tyranny of August led into a short September, whereupon I had to move, yet again. As I write this, in February, it appears I will be moving again before summer, and quite possibly soon. I really don’t know why I bother packing and unpacking anymore.

back here again
I made a point to catch sunset at the train station.

moon
It’s times like this that the camera shines compared to all of my previous digital cameras.

that might explain why I'm back here again
I’ve noted that I seem to be seeking out overhead views. This is inevitably a problem since I don’t have access to many.

incoming!
In a bit of luck…

return of the commuters
A train was arriving.

camera, please ignore bright lights
Its lights turned out to be overwhelmingly bright.

more likely I'm too much of a wannabe to know how
Perhaps you just can’t film an oncoming train in twilight.

the lights, they're so bright!
When it got closer than this, the lights overwhelmed the photos.

eye-pad
Someone waiting on the platform probably means that same train is going to roll back into the station westbound in few minutes.
