Random beauty (it’s subjective) is there on the sidewalk when you open your eyes.

Red ropes on the pavement
Posted in Misc, tagged brooklyn, found objects, ft. hamilton parkway, lost and found, photography, red licorice on March 23, 2013| Leave a Comment »
We call these red licorice, though others will argue that they aren’t licorice at all. I chanced upon this arrangement in the street around 6:45 PM. It looks like one person was explaining parallel lines to another then gave up when some cars came through.
Found object: the letter E
Posted in Misc, tagged brooklyn, found object, found on sidewalk, ft. hamilton parkway, photography, the letter e on December 9, 2012| Leave a Comment »
The letter E is popular because it’s a vowel. Still, there was no explanation why this letter was on the sidewalk outside a fast food place. It looks like the lowest bar of the E is contemplating a getaway, but for where?

It’s nice that the business has a U.N. flag decorating the small parking lot, but it does seem to be helping their popularity.
No gas – Get in line

The cars in line stretch for blocks, and no one can say when the gas might come in. Some stations don’t have enough electricity to pump the gas they have. Don’t call a car service; they are stuck, too. Our best hope right now is public transportation.
The laundromat closes at 9:00?
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged brooklyn, brooklyn laundromat, ft. hamilton parkway, photography on August 15, 2012| Leave a Comment »
This laundromat is at street level but looks like someone’s dingy basement. Any moment, I expect someone wearing a housecoat or baggy boxer shorts to shuffle in and yell at me.
King of the castle

The ads up in the Burger King side windows were of happy people having a cookout. Then I looked in the front window and saw the paper crowns and a crisp reflection of the houses across the street. Not too many customers eating BK this afternoon.
The bus out to Bay Ridge

NYC buses tend toward extremes: either fairly fast or slower than walking. This ride, a quick one, was curious for the one guy’s hair. I didn’t know people still put shapes on their scalps, other than at World Series time.
Sunday ride

Out for a Sunday and ride and he’s got to check his email at the red light. If he weren’t preoccupied with the phone, he’d catch the dirty look on her face.
