Five Years Ago

The graffiti wall in Plainfield, NJ. This is just off of East Fifth Street. The graffiti artists who did graphics for the front and side of the business where this is located apparently have been given the wall to do whatever they wish art-wise. It's constantly changing. I should walk by and snag a shot of the latest.

Flowers for a Monday Morning

It's another Monday. Let's all go to work!
Wah.

The Empty Train

 

On the Raritan Valley Line of NJ Transit, sometimes the off-peak trains are nearly empty. I'm not complaining, mind you.

The Damselfly

 

My apologies for having gone missing for about a week. I was a bit under the weather both literally and figuratively.

Here's a damselfly and the hope of spring.

Watching for rats?

It looks like the lone man on the subway platform on the right might be watching rat antics down on the tracks. Yes, there are often rats running around down there. I've tried to photograph them, but they're very fast.

The Graffiti Wall

 

A wall in the back of a building in Plainfield seems to have been given to graffiti artists in exchange for them doing actual graphics on the front and side wall of said building.

Oh Noes! I'm in the Street!

 

I took advantage of a lull in traffic to get this shot in East Harlem, NYC.

Vintage

 

A restored (and probably souped-up) car sits in front of Flash Tattoos on East 4th Street in Plainfield.

The Chess King

Colors of Spring

As we had yet another record breaking cold day, I thought some spring colors were needed. This is the inside of an iris, up close and personal.
