chicana: awsome pictures!!!!!!!!

in response to Berlin Wall Graffiti

Elicar: Nope, it makes you swear off ice cream because of the size. The kid's size ($2.00) is humonguous and they used to sell it to kids at heart. They have changed their policy as everyone is buying the kid's size. Just to give you an idea, the kid's size is...

Get out of your car, buddy: I don't find The Beach to be a snobby place, at least not more than the norm for this city. All income levels are represented, there is social housing, and close to 10% of the population is on social assistance of one form or another. Heck, the place is...

Elicar: The sun, the plane's right wing, the endless horizon, and the reflection of my camera.

in response to Photographs of Photographers

Catherine Penfold-Waxman: Me and my trusty camera. The Hudson river and New Jersey in the background.

in response to Kangirsujuaq

barbara mcgrail: thank you. what lovely photographs. i didn't realise there were so many bridges in the area, but certainly seeing the 'brooklyn, manhattan, and williamsburgh (BMW) brought back lovely memories of sailing underneath them last september 05 whilst on holiday. hope to go back some day...

in response to The Streets Speak in a Native Tongue: Harlem

EvilGentleman: jack, wind burn is when the cold air blowing against your skin does not go so far as to cause frostbite, but instead slowly tans your skin darker. The intense sunlight from reflections off snow that is common there in the spring can also add to the tanning effect of...

in response to Flying Pigs

EvilGentleman: Based on the pictures in the link, I am guessing they restricted access to the area due to the disrespectful things some visitors carved into the concrete, like the swastika on the 20-foot mirror. Truly a pity that everyone has to pay for the actions of a few imbeciles. Worse...

in response to Sound Mirrors

EvilGentleman: Actually jack, there is no reflection. What you see in the camera screen is the preview of the shot my friend with the red hair was taking. She was taking a picture of a man and a woman. But if you are looking for reflections of me... I took this driving...

in response to Photographs of Photographers

Tyfoid Kid: That big building is the main downtown Post office. I was standing in front of it when I took the other pictures. This turgid pile is where I work onestop.umn.edu/Maps/WBOB/WBOB-photo.html

in response to Sunday Morning on the Way to Work

drea: Holy crap..must be nice to wake up and go to work in that. I really like the last picture, very nice. The 3rd one's impressive.

in response to Sunday Morning on the Way to Work

fuzzytank: i always did like that one when it popped up in a class.

in response to Tower of Doom

Elicar: Is that a reason for celebration? I am now from "The Beach". I can be a snob now! ;) I have some memories at Paddy's. You forgot Gabby's. At least they make a decent frozen Marguarita! I love ice cream but I vowed not to patronize Ben and Jerry's again. I spent...

in response to The 40th Beaches Lion’s Easter Parade

Get out of your car, buddy: Well, starting today, you are a new member of The Beach. Welcome to the club! I think the bars suck in The Beach too. Again, they are much better on Kingston Rd. You can't beat Paddy O'Farrels for its atmosphere, or The Feathers for its scotch selection. ...

in response to The 40th Beaches Lion’s Easter Parade

GGP: these are really cool. i love the idea: sound mirror. all sorts of associations there.

in response to Sound Mirrors

Elicar: Buddy, you forgot the bars... I said in one of my comments that I am not much of a drinker, but from time to time, it's nice to go out and let loose (two drinks is more than plenty!). At any rate, a friend and I went to Lion on...

elaine: these pictures are better than mine www.hyperkit.co.uk/dungeness/

in response to Sound Mirrors

polyetheleneterephthelate: Stunning. Must have made the journey in worthwhile. The third photo is particularly impressive - it still looks like night in the reflection. Nice work.

in response to Sunday Morning on the Way to Work

Grange: well, i would add something , but all the good lines are taken

in response to A Grisly Example of Man\'s Inhumanity

ian: It's filled with all sorts of neat networking toys. More than you could ever imagine. Some of the floors are also likely leased out as datacenters. And probably alot of NSA spy-stuff too.

in response to Tower of Doom

groovehouse: 1-800-DOOM-4-U Call now! Operators are standing by! Don't hesitate, be the first to reserve your very own piece of eternal hell!

in response to Tower of Doom

Catherine Penfold-Waxman: Doooom. DOOOOOOOMMM! This morning on the train, I saw that someone had amended an Ad to read: "in 2010, Germany will destroy Iran and American in a Nuclear blitz." It then listed a phone number and website. So now I see this post, I wonder if AT&T aren't in on...

in response to Tower of Doom

Catherine Penfold-Waxman: It's the stilts I have to wear to work.

in response to Shadow Box

Catherine Penfold-Waxman: Jack, Aloe will take care of almost any kind of burn, so that's soothing news, right? EvilG, as stunningly beautiful as you've shown us the artic circle to be, I believe you when you say it's Hell. It's a place that's intent on killing you. Brrrrrrrrr!

M.Rojas: I love their music, I grew up with their music they are one of spanish rock's legends with other songs like: "Matenme porque me muero","Afuera","La celula que expolta", "Aqui no es asi","Cuentame tu vida","Miercoles de ceniza","De noche todos los gatos son pardos","Perdi mi ojo de venado","Quisiera ser alcol","Viento" and alots...

Tyfoid Kid: Very cool. Very Dark Knight - Gotham City

GGP: yes, and each spot a little different, as if hand-painted.

jack: by the way that is a great pic. scary.

in response to Tower of Doom

jack: phone company is like a monster robot. you cant fight it and it is always after you and its always there, everywhere you go there is a phone, watching you, watching you. it sits there, watching you.

in response to Tower of Doom

jack: faith is a wonderful thing.

in response to Shadow Box

jack: actually it is a time mechanism placed here by aliens. it was supposed to go around stonehenge but the navigator was drunk and dropped it here. he kept on screaming, "where are my big rocks, where are my big rocks, they're going to fall if i dont get...

elaine: a phone company of destruction, you say?

in response to Tower of Doom

jack: they should rename the restaurant, the pig with its nose in the air.

in response to Flying Pigs

jack: you would think that you get good a burn in the summer on the beach, but whats with freezer burn, is that good? how can you get burned in a freezer and whats with a wind burn. does the wind blow around with a lit match, no, we...

jack: i love pics of people. but i see the reflection of the women with the red hair in the camera with a guy behind her. is that you? drunks, if they are funny drunks are interesting but there are bad drunks. funny drunks are funny because...

jack: oh how i love a parade. in 1947 and 48 we had parades in brooklyn and the soldiers would march by. i always enjoyed seeing the soldiers. guess thats why i became one. i love bands playing and the kids having fun. your parade is...

in response to The 40th Beaches Lion’s Easter Parade

Get out of your car, buddy: LOL! Those are the ones! Everybody was mocking them by doing that cheesy little wave. Watching from Neville Park was a good move. Not as packed, and you can get away before the rest of the crowd. The results of this "democratic" vote are out today (my money...

J: Um sorry about the pixelated images. I'm new at resizing and uploading photos

in response to A Grisly Example of Man\'s Inhumanity

J: This is how he moved it. It looked like he had somehow dropped a stack of books or a box wrapped in a sheet out of his cart so I watched to see how that could've happened, was he missing the front of his cart, did he just drop...

in response to A Grisly Example of Man\'s Inhumanity

J: I don't think many of the people there knew that photographs of them were being taken or that those photos were going to be publically posted without names. These people do not have a chance to defend themselves unless someone they know reads this site and says they saw...

Laura : A sun umbrella?! Wierd. As a New Yorker, I am trying desperately to picture it.

in response to Part-time Optical Illusionist

Laura : I truly feel like I was there. Great photos :)

in response to The 40th Beaches Lion’s Easter Parade

Laura : Thanks for posting! I love when people who have been "lurking" come out with their own stuff. Took me a year! I look forward to your future posts.

in response to Fighting or Frolicking?

drea: yeah..i agree..the third picture's good! I like it!

in response to Pet Dog & Street Cat

Editor: please post your photos in groups rather than one-per-article, especially when they're all the same theme (eg. graffiti). also, is it too much to ask for a location or a title?

joey: the holes probably once held neon tubing

in response to Le Parkour

EvilGentleman: You sure are long-legged, Cat.

in response to Shadow Box

EvilGentleman: The same locale has also produced many a cold day in July

in response to Flying Pigs

EvilGentleman: Sorry to tell you this, but I have lived in Hell (the Arctic on a really bad day), and it's frigging cold! Frozen over is putting it lightly.

in response to Flying Pigs

Catherine Penfold-Waxman: My shadow. It got away once, but I sewed it back on to my feet.

in response to Shadow Box

Catherine Penfold-Waxman: I hope the priest anoints with milk, 'cos that goes with cookies.

in response to Easter in Roncesvalles

Catherine Penfold-Waxman: There's room for the cat in the dogs skin. I like the third picture. That cat sure is poised for action.

in response to Pet Dog & Street Cat

Catherine Penfold-Waxman: Sorry, EvilG. At least Hell hasn't frozen over. You wouldn't believe who I have to sleep with when that happens. and if it makes you feel better, I saw pink elephants on Saturday afternoon at the Bohemian Beer Garden in Astoria.
