(August 16) Yes, I am still posting about August 16th. (I finally remembered to tag the DUMBO photos though) The day that started out as a small trip to DUMBO to snap a few photos of the Revs sculpture before it is stolen into the private market, didn’t end with me walking back from the mural and heading straight to the York St. Station. Upon seeing one of the Manhattan “waterfalls”, I decided to go visit the trees that are being killed by the Brooklyn Bridge “waterfall”.

As it turned out, the place was full of photographers

Under the Brooklyn Bridge, on the shores of the East River,
you’ll find Brooklyn Bridge Park

Lots of people were sitting around here listening to the waves

The park is presently full of artwork that has a “recycled feel” to it

There’s lots of great views of the Manhattan Bridge here

It seems to be a popular destination and hangout

There’s also a lot of good views of the Brooklyn Bridge

As I would later find out, this seems to be the place to have weddings

Finally, I reached my destination, the trees being poisoned
by the spray from the “waterfall”

And there’s the tree killer, caught in the act

This ends my story about August 16th. I just realized I forgot to post my trip to Prospect Park in July. I guess that’s coming next.
